This work provides the broad range of applications of inorganic compounds. Due to their well defined properties they play an important role in many fields either on a large scale in our daily life or as niche products. Experts from industry and academia present the vast amount of distinguished materials focusing on their synthesis and function.
Volume 1 covers e.g. coatings, (inter)metallics, technical gases, ionic solids, catalytic materials.
