Small Particles Technology

This comprehensive review of small particle preparation and properties examines the possibilities of tailoring materials to meet special needs and standards of performance. Otterstedt and Brandreth present the chemical and physical principles essential to the preparation of silica, alumina, transition metal oxides and sulfides, zeolites, and clay minerals. Small Particles Technology is a detailed description of particle surfaces, current methods of modification, and applications that will greatly benefit researchers, professionals, and students of materials science.
