Klappentext With contributions from leading workers in the field! this book will be suitable for researchers in chemistry and materials science. Zusammenfassung With contributions from leading workers in the field! this book examines the design! synthesis and study of molecular structures held together by non-covalent interactions. It demonstrates the seminal importance of supramolecular chemistry and self-organization in the design and synthesis of novel organic materials! inorganic materials and biomaterials.
