Nanoporous Materials 
Types, Properties and Uses

Nanoporous materials consist of a regular organic or inorganic framework supporting a porous structure. Nanoporous materials are separated into three subtypes: microporous materials, mesoporous materials and macroporous materials. In recent years, nanoporous materials have been recognized as promising candidates for the multifunctional applications such as catalysis, ion-exchange, gas storage low density magnetic storage, etc. In addition, nanoporous materials are also of scientific and technological importance because of their ability to absorb and cooperate with atoms, ions and molecules on their sizeable interior surfaces and pore space. This new book proposes and reviews advances being made in the field of nanoporous materials.
