Chemoresponsive Materials : Stimulation by Chemical and Biological Signals Hardback
Edited by Hans-Jorg (Universitaet des Saarlandes, Germany) Schneider
Part of the Smart Materials Series series
Hardback
Description
Smart materials stimulated by chemical or biological signals are of interest for their many applications including drug delivery, as well as in new sensors and actuators for environmental monitoring, process and food control, and medicine.
In contrast to other books on responsive materials, this volume concentrates on materials which are stimulated by chemical or biological signals.
Chemoresponsive Materials introduces the area with chapters covering different responsive material systems including hydrogels, organogels, membranes, thin layers, polymer brushes, chemomechanical and imprinted polymers, nanomaterials, silica particles, as well as carbohydrate- and bio-based systems.
Many promising applications are highlighted, with an emphasis on drug delivery, sensors and actuators.
With contributions from internationally known experts, the book will appeal to graduate students and researchers in academia, healthcare and industry interested in functional materials and their applications.
