Ion Exchange Materials Properties And Applications PDF Download

The book fills a two-dimensional gap. First, there is a lack of modern comprehensive books on chemistry of ion exchange materials and on relationships between their properties and practical applications. Second, there is a lack of books on chemistry of ion exchange that are targeted for industrial R&D specialists and research students who- (i) have not been working with ion exchange on daily basis, (ii) need this new competence, and (iii) find it difficult to start studying the subject from primary scientific publications. The book describes classical and modern theoretical concepts as well as practical approaches to exploitation of ion exchange materials. The book is attempted to be written with an open mind presenting known concepts and indicating gaps in the scientific knowledge.The contents of this book are outlined and rationalised as follows. The most extensive application of ion exchange materials is separation technology. As a result, the major part of the book is focused on separation applications. However, all fundamental concepts of ion exchange interactions are fully applicable to questions of ion exchange catalysis, designing of artificial soils, and other uses of these materials.Ion exchangers have many appearances, natural and artificial, inorganic and polymeric. They are woods, papers, sands, clays, glauconites, zeolites, functional resins, and even living organisms. In this book, the main focus is on ion exchange polymers- ion exchange resins, chelating resins, imprinted (templated), and other functional polymers. Other materials, and first of all such inorganic materials as zeolites, are also described, but to a less extend.Key Features- Comprehensively covers the subject.- Provides links between theoretical concepts, properties of the materials, practical applications, and technical solutions.- Can be read with only ground knowledge of university-level chemistry.- Can be read without a deep knowledge of mathematics.- Easy to understand.- Supported with an interactive web-site.Key Features- Comprehensively covers the subject.- Provides links between theoretical concepts, properties of the materials, practical applications, and technical solutions.- Can be read with only ground knowledge of university-level chemistry.- Can be read without a deep knowledge of mathematics.- Easy to understand.- Supported with an interactive web-site.
