Zeolites and Zeolite-like Materials (Relié)

Zeolites and Zeolite-like Materials offer a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the important areas of zeolite synthesis, characterization,and applications. The chapters are written in an educational and easily to understand format for the young generation of zeolite chemists, especially for those who just started their research on this topic and reflect the current state of zeolite research, identifying gaps and opportunities.
The book demonstrates various applications of zeolites in heterogeneous catalysis and biomass conversion, and identifies the endless possibilities that exist for this class of materials, their structures, functions, and applications yet to be discovered. Zeolites and Zeolite-like Materials demonstrates that zeolite-like materials should be regarded as a living body developing towards new, modern applications, thereby responding to the needs and challenges of modern technology (biomass conversion, medicine, laser techniques, nanomaterial design, etc.).
The book is of interest not only to zeolite-focused researchers, but to a broad scientific and non-scientific audience. A comprehensive review of literature since 2000 ; Covers the chemistry of novel zeolite-like materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), hierarchical zeolite materials, new mesoporous and composite zeolite-like micro/mesoporous materials ; Gives essential information on the new zeolite-like structures, and a balanced coverage of the most important areas of the zeolite research (synthesis, characterization, adsorption, catalysis, new applications of zeolites and zeolite-like materials) ; Chapters prepared by known specialists and members of the International Zeolite Association.
