Focusing on layered compounds at the core of materials intercalation chemistry, the Handbook of Layered Materials explores clays and other classes of materials exhibiting the ability to pillar, or establish permanent intracrystalline porosity within layers. Explaining basic concepts first before delving into more scientifically complex topics, the book presents fundamental properties as well as summaries of cutting-edge research results. It outlines modern usages of clays and other layered materials, including catalytic and photocatalytic applications and examines the chemistry of clays, pillared clays, and pillared heterostructures.

The Handbook of Zeolite Science and Technology offers effective analyses ofsalient cases selected expressly for their relevance to current and prospective research.  Presenting the principal theoretical and experimental underpinnings of zeolites, this international effort is at once complete and forward-looking, combining fundamental concepts with the most sophisticated data for each scientific subtopic and budding technology. Supplying over 750 figures, and 350 display equations, this impressive achievement in zeolite science observes synthesis through the lens of MFI (ZSM-5 and silicalite). Chapters progress from conceptual building blocks to complex research presentations.
