Sol-gel silica : properties, processing, and technology transfer /
Collection : Materials science and process technology series Détails physiques : 1 online resource (ix, 168 pages) : illustrations. ISBN :9780815514190; 0815514190; 9780815519041 (electronic bk.); 0815519044 (electronic bk.).A unique perspective of twentieth century research and development in materials science. It summarizes the fifteen years of sol-gel silica processing research leading to the commercial development of bioactive gel-glasses for medical applications. It demonstrates the combined use of quantum mechanical molecular modeling and spectroscopy to solve environmental stability problems. A final chapter addresses the topic of Technology Transfer - how to transfer technology from the laboratory to a profitable commercial enterprise using examples from various chapters in the book.
