This 24th volume continues in the tradition of its predecessors, presenting authoritative, interdisciplinary coverage of contemporary topics in the field of carbon chemistry and physics. With contributions by leading international experts, this volume: describes pitch polymerization kinetics during mesophase formation and the constitution of coexisting phases in mesophase pitch during heat treatment; elucidates the mechanism of mesophase formation and pitch polymerization kinetics after mesophase formation; examines the importance of physical, solid-state, electro- and analytical chemistry in the study of carbon surfaces; discusses the theoretical background for the thermal conductivity of diamonds, single crystal diamonds and chemically-vapour-deposited diamond films; and explains the chemistry involved in the commercial fabrication and use of needle coke.

This book provides a fundamental understanding of the basis of the theoretical treatment of electronic properties in graphite. It illustrates the wide range of topics of interest to researchers on carbon materials and stimulates further understanding of some of the phenomena involved.

This book provides a comprehensive and critical overview of carbon materials in terms of molecular structure, intermolecular relationships, bulk and surface properties, and their behavior in current and emerging applications. It also presents advances in carbon research and development.

This volume reviews the evidence for some elements substituting directly for carbon atoms in the graphite lattice. It is an invaluable resource to all carbon researchers and to those who involved with graphite materials, and serves to provoke research.

This book provides insights into the mechanisms of primary carbonization and reviews the graphitization of various carbon materials under applied pressures. It discusses the changes in the thermal-mechanical properties of carbon/carbon composites due to stress effects.

This book presents authoritative, interdisciplinary coverage of contemporary topics in the field of carbon chemistry and physics and clearly shows the diversity and universality of carbon research. It is useful for readers working in the general area of carbon adsorbents.
