Design of Molecular Materials

Supramolecular Engineering

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Die Autoren dieses Buches diskutieren die Beziehung zwischen der Struktur eines Makromoleküls und den Eigenschaften seiner molekularen Bausteine. So werden die Charakteristika von supramolekularen Werkstoffen deutlich, ohne dass der Leser detaillierte Vorkenntnisse der Chemie oder der Physik benötigt. Mathematische Herleitungen wurden weitgehend vermieden, experimentelle Daten wurden in der Regel nicht theoretisch unterlegt. Eine leicht verständliche Einführung in das Gebiet! The relationships between the characteristics of a molecular unit and the type of organization of molecular assemblies have never been examined in full detail. However, this is a key step in supramolecular chemistry. This is the first book to gather this information and provide all the guidelines for designing molecular materials.

---

This timely and fascinating book is destined to be recognised as THE book on supramolecular engineering protocols. It covers this sometimes difficult subject in an approachable form, gathering together information from many sources.Supramolecular chemistry, which links organic chemistry to materials science, is one of the fastest growth areas of chemistry research. This book creates a correlation between the structure of single molecules and the physical and chemical properties of the resulting materials. By making systematic changes to the component molecules, the resulting solid can be engineered for optimum performance. There is a clearly written development from synthesis of designer molecules to properties of solids and further on to devices and complex materials systems, providing guidelines for mastering the organisation of these systems.Topics covered include: Systemic chemistry Molecular assemblies Notions of symmetry Supramolecular engineering Principe de Curie Organisation in molecular media Molecular semiconductors Industrial applications of molecular materialsThis superb book will be invaluable to researchers in the field of supramolecular materials and also to students and teachers of the subject.
