This volume considers a selection of the state-of-the-art materials that are being designed to meet some of the energy challenges we face today. Topics are carefully chosen that show how the skill of the synthetic chemist can be applied to allow the targeted preparation of inorganic materials with properties optimised for a specific application.
Four chapters explore the key areas of:
Energy Materials provides both a summary of the current status of research, and an eye to how future research may develop materials properties further.
Additional volumes in the Inorganic Materials Series:
