Publisher's Synopsis
Molecular imprinting, a technique inspired by natural antibody-antigen interactions, allows the creation of synthetic polymers with selective binding capabilities. The infusion of carbon based materials into this field introduces a new dimension, leveraging the unique properties of carbon to enhance the design, performance, and applications of these polymers. Carbon-Based Molecularly Imprinted Polymers offers an in-depth exploration of the integration of carbon materials into the molecular imprinting-based smart carbon nanomaterials framework. It covers fundamental principles, design strategies, and performance evaluation of these materials, emphasizing their applications in environmental remediation, biomedical sciences and analytical chemistry. Readers will gain valuable insights into the synthesis techniques, surface engineering, and practical use of carbon-based molecularly imprinted polymers. The book is an essential reference for researchers, academics, and professionals seeking a holistic understanding of this cutting-edge intersection between polymer science and carbon nanomaterials.
