Introduction to Freeze-drying and Ice Templating -- Fundamentals of Controlled Freezing for Ice-templated Porous Materials -- Applications of Freeze-drying in Pharmaceuticals, Biopharmaceuticals, and Foods -- Porous Polymers by Ice Templating -- Porous Ceramics and Metals by Ice Templating -- Strong and Tough Ceramic Composites via Ice Templating -- Porous Carbon and Carbon-based Materials via Ice Templating and Freeze-drying -- Nanomedicine via Freeze-drying and Ice Templating -- Nanostructured Materials Fabricated via Ice Templating of Colloidal/Nanoparticle Suspensions -- Other Developments and Perspectives in the Fabrication of New Materials Facilitated by Freezing and Freeze-drying |
| Summary |
Filling a gap in the literature, this is the first book to focus on the fabrication of functional porous materials by using ice templating and freeze drying. Comprehensive in its scope, the volume covers such techniques as the fabrication of porous polymers, porous ceramics, biomimic strong composites, carbon nanostructured materials, nanomedicine, porous nanostructures by freeze drying of colloidal or nanoparticle suspensions, and porous materials by combining ice templating and other techniques. In addition, applications for each type of material are also discussed. Of great benefit to those working in the freeze-drying field and researchers in porous materials, materials chemistry, engineering, and the use of such materials for various applications, both in academia and industry |
