In the past few decades, the increasingly routine use of advanced
structural probes for studying the structure and dynamics of the
solid state has led to some dramatic developments in the field of
porous solids. These materials are fundamental in a diverse range
of applications, such as shape-selective catalysts for
energy-efficient organic transformations, new media for pollutant
removal, and gas storage materials for energy technologies.
Porosity in inorganic materials may range from the nano-scale to
the macro-scale, and the drive towards particular properties
remains the goal in this fast-developing area of research. Covering
some of the key families of inorganic solids that are currently
being studied, Porous Materials discusses:
- Metal Organic Frameworks Materials
- Mesoporous Silicates
- Ordered Porous Crystalline Transition Metal Oxides
- Recent Developments in Templated Porous Carbon Materials
- Synthetic Silicate Zeolites: Diverse Materials Accessible Through Geoinspiration
