Nanostructured Materials (eBook)

Nanostructured Materials: Physicochemical Chemistry Fundamentals for Energy and Environmental Applications summarizes research knowledge and helps advanced students, researchers and industrial technicians understand specific applications of nanomaterials in energy and the environment. Sections bring a strong foundational focus on the physicochemical basis of nanomaterials for these applications, the basic theory and physicochemical basis of nanomaterials, an energy and environment applications examination of typical cases, and progress. This book will appeal to researchers in the chemical sciences (inorganic and physical chemistry, coordination chemistry, molecular dynamics, electrochemistry, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis, thermodynamics, etc.), nanoscience (graphene, carbon nanotubes, nanocrystals, nano catalysis, energy, and environment-nano science), and more. Efficient use of energy, eco-friendly environmental systems, and technologies play an important role in global sustainable development. Multifunctional nanocomposites have excellent properties and can meet the practical needs of energy development and environmental treatment. They have been gradually applied in chemical materials, energy preparation, pollution control and other fields and have achieved impressive development. - Provides a unified overview of a large variety of different applications on the design and synthesis of nanomaterials with potential applications in various conventional and new energy and environmental technologies - Provides a strong foundational focus on the analysis of the structure of nanomaterials, the basic principles of design (nanomaterial structure-activity relationship), and the theoretical basis of physical chemistry (theoretical basis of nanomaterial design and applications) - Meets a need to summarize and examine ongoing research and advances in a rapidly developing field

Zesheng Li has been engaged in the scientific research of electrochemical energy materials and environmental catalytic materials (fuel cell electrocatalytic materials, electrochemical energy storage electrode materials, solar photocatalytic materials). he has accumulated some research experience in the design, synthesis, and functional regulation of nano materials (including SACs) and achieved interesting research results.
