Porous materials captivate a great deal of interest due to their high surface area to volume ratio and utilization in different areas like separation, catalysis, adsorption, ion conduction and filtration. A large variety of porous networks have been developed using lightweight elements by means of strong covalent bonding. Significant advancements have been achieved in the recent years with respect to tuning of structure and properties of these materials so as to attain advanced applications. In this respect, the main aim of the book is to assimilate the fundamental know how about the synthesis, properties as well as applications of a large range of recently developed and commercially viable porous polymer networks.The book is a valuable reference for polymer, chemical, biochemical and materials engineers, as well as practicing scientists and researchers in both academia and industry. It is also a useful resource for postgraduate university students in chemical, polymer and materials disciplines, along with interdisciplinary streams.For more details, please visit https://centralwestpublishing.com

The purpose of this book is to assimilate the recent advances in the field of nanotechnology in terms of material development and applications in diverse fields such as catalysis, desalination, sensing, automobiles, aerospace, construction, etc.

Corrosion involves the degradation of metals due to the oxidation and reduction processes occurring during the interaction of the metallic surfaces with the aggressive environments. These electrochemical processes result in the impairment of materials'' physical and mechanical properties such as strength and ductility. Application of coatings is the most widely used method for the corrosion protection of the metallic structures. Specifically, the polymeric coatings (or reinforced polymer coatings) protect the metal substrates from external corrosive agents by acting as an effective barrier. Besides that, depending on the morphology and structure of polymers, the coatings possess the properties like thermal, chemical and mechanical stability. These properties combined with the ability to strongly adhere to metal surfaces yield durable coatings with longer service lifetime compared with other metallic and inorganic coatings. The purpose of this book is to assimilate the recent advances in the field of functional coatings systems for achieving effective corrosion protection.For more details, please visit https://centralwestpublishing.com
