In recent years, the increasing demand for advanced materials to meet the needs of current technology has led to a reexamination of the interface between chemistry, engineering, and materials science, as well as increasing recognition of the need to involve chemistry and chemical engineering more directly in the pursuit of solutions to materials-related problems. Whereas most textbooks have focused on describing and categorizing materials and preparative methods,this book covers topics relevant to the design of new materials. In this new edition there will be expanded discussions on several topics, specifically on microstructural aspects, density functional theory, dielectric properties, mechanical properties, and nanomaterials. Additionally, this edition will containupdated content to reflect recent developments reported in the literature.
