Supramolecular chemistry concerns the structure and function of molecular assemblies formed through weak interactions. These complexes have found diverse applications in materials chemistry, nanoscience, catalysis, food sciences and medicine, and this has led to a rapid expansion in supramolecular chemistry research. With contributions from high profile international scientists working within the field, each book in the series covers a key concept for graduate level students and above interested in supramolecular chemistry and its diverse applications. The books are ideal for reference and as state-of-the art guides, and they aim to enable further developments of new applications through an understanding of the fundamentals and a comprehensive overview of the latest research.

Nanochemistry offers the unique chance to work with almost all the elements of the periodic system to try to solve problems with new materials in architecture, medicine and electronics. This book draws together the published material on nanochemistry from 2005-2008, choosing each important element of the periodic table, summarising relevant general properties and then detailing the findings. Coverage is aimed at materials researchers and the authors intend to bring the reader up-to-date with information which could alter the use of materials in an industry setting.
