Nanocomposite Sorbents for Multiple Applications

This book develops the concept of target-oriented synthesis and suggests tools for tailoring new adsorbent materials adapted to multiple practical applications. For example, by "nanotailoring" sorption properties, a new family of nanocomposite sorbents, "salt in nanoporous matrix", is presented. The text contains a survey of this new family, as well as the properties of nearly 50 new composite sorbents of water, alcohol, ammonia, and carbon dioxide. This data can be used in analyzing potential applications, including low-temperature heat storage and transformation, gas drying, and more.
