Methodologies and Applications for Analytical and Physical Chemistry

This new volume, Methodologies and Applications for Analytical and Physical Chemistry, presents an up-to-date review of modern materials and physical chemistry concepts, issues, and recent advances in analytical and physical chemistry. Distinguished scientists and engineers from key institutions worldwide have contributed chapters that provide a deep analysis of their particular subjects. The chapters discuss the composition and properties of complex materials as well as mixtures, processes, and the need for new and improved analytical technology to better understand physical chemistry concepts and processes.

The chapter authors provide numerous examples and practical applications drawn from research and development chemistry, providing a greater understanding of problems than purely intuitive methods. They emphasize the intersection of chemistry, math, physics, and the resulting applications across many disciplines of science, and explore applied physical chemistry principles in specific areas.

The premise of this work is to offer both a comprehensive understanding of applied science and engineering as a whole as well as provide thorough knowledge on individual subjects. This approach appropriately conveys the basic fundamentals, state-of-the-art technology, and applications of the involved disciplines, and further encourages scientific collaboration among researchers.

Experts in each of the areas covered have reviewed the state of the art, thus creating a book that will be useful to readers at all levels in academia, industry, and research.
