Molecular Sieves - Science and Technology will cover, in a comprehensive manner, the science and technology of zeolites and all related microporous and mesoporous materials. Authored by renowned experts, the contributions will be grouped together topically in such a way that each volume of the book series will be dealing with a specific sub-field. Volume 1 will be entirely devoted to the science of synthesizing molecular sieve materials and include aluminosilicate zeolites, porosils, silica and silica-alumina with ordered mesopores, microporous materials with elements other than silicon and aluminum in the framework and pillared clays.Molecular Sieves - Science and Technology will cover, in a comprehensive manner, the science and technology of zeolites and all related microporous and mesoporous materials.
