Design and Control of Structure of Advanced Carbon Materials for Enhanced Performance (Nato Science Series E: (closed))
Description
The review of carbon materials here presented regards them as forming a continuous spectrum, varying in crystallinity and nano?, micro? and macro?texture. The structure?property relationships are discussed to examine how they can be controlled during different processing operations. Processing routes are described to see how they might be varied, modified or invented to meet he needs for new applications.
The following key questions are debated:
The following key questions are debated:
- What is intrinsically possible with carbon materials?
- How do we convert what is intrinsically possible into an engineering product that enhances our quality of life?
- How do we design and produce materials to satisfy the visions of the engineer?
