Chemistry and physics of carbon; v.30.9781420042986 Chemistry and physics of carbon; v.30. Ed. by Ljubisa R. Radovic. CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Checking) An error checking technique used to ensure the accuracy of transmitting digital data. The transmitted messages are divided into predetermined lengths which, used as dividends, are divided by a fixed divisor. / Taylor & Francis 2008 244 pages $199.95 Hardcover QD245 This anniversary volume contains four chapters on a wide range of chemical and physical aspects of carbon science and technology. Chapter One covers the preparation, reactions, porosity, and performance of carbon activation by alkaline hydroxides. Chapter Two discusses molecular-level design of the porosity and pore size distribution of carbons using template-based synthesis. It describes opportunities for development of tailor-made carbon materials for applications in adsorption, catalysis catalysis Modification (usually acceleration) of a chemical reaction rate by addition of a catalyst, which combines with the reactants but is ultimately regenerated so that its amount remains unchanged and the chemical equilibrium of the conditions of the reaction is not , electricity storage, and medicine. Chapter Three examines the methodology of characterizing carbon surfaces, emphasizing the use of complementary techniques. Chapter Four focuses on sorption sorption /sorp·tion/ (sorp´shun) the process or state of being sorbed; absorption or adsorption. sorp·tion n. Adsorption or absorption. of heavy oils into carbon materials in the clean-up of oil spills. Contributors are academics and researchers in inorganic chemistry, chemical and bimolecular bi·mo·lec·u·lar adj. Relating to, consisting of, or affecting two molecules. bi  mo·lec engineering, and industrial science. Radovic is
