Materials Science and Engineering of Carbon

Characterization of carbon materials has to be carefully done because the optimum conditions for the characterization of each carbon material are quite different. Materials Science and Engineering of Carbon: Characterization discusses 12 characterization techniques by focusing their application on carbon materials, including X-ray diffraction, X-ray small-angle scattering, transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, image analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, magnetoresistance, electrochemical performance, pore structure analysis, thermal analyses, and quantification of functional groups.Each contributor of this book has been working on carbon materials for many years. Their background and experience will provide guidance on the development and research of carbon materials and their applications. Focuses on characterization techniques for carbon materials The author of each chapter has been working on carbon materials and is a specialist in the respective technique Presents practical results on various carbon materials, including fault results, which will help readers understand the optimum conditions for the characterization of carbon materials
