Description
Book SynopsisSolid State Chemistry: An Introduction 6th edition is a fully revised edition of one of our most successful textbooks with at least 20% new information and new images of crystal structures.
Solid-state chemistry is still a rapidly advancing field, contributing to areas such as batteries for transport and energy storage, nanostructured materials, porous materials for the capture of carbon dioxide and other pollutants.
This edition aims, as previously, not only to teach the basic science that underpins the subject, but also to direct the reader to the most modern techniques and to expanding and new areas of research. The user-friendly style takes a largely non-mathematical approach and gives practical examples of applications of solid state materials and concepts.
The chapter on sustainability written by an expert in the field has been updated and examples of the relevance of solid state chemistry to sustainability are used throughout. The chapter on batteries has be
