Features: Starting from the scientific foundation of inorganic material synthesis, this book provides a detailed discussion on the main techniques, methods, applications, and cutting-edge fields of inorganic material synthesis, reflecting the current research trends in this field. The book covers various areas such as soft chemistry and synthesis under extreme conditions, emphasizing the structural characteristics of inorganic materials, thermodynamics during the synthesis process, solid-state reactions, sintering, and other fundamental theories. It also introduces experimental techniques frequently used in inorganic material synthesis, such as high-temperature, low-temperature, high-pressure, vacuum, gas purification, atmosphere control, and separation/purification. The book provides a thorough explanation of advanced synthesis methods including chemical vapor deposition, sol-gel, hydrothermal and solvothermal synthesis, self-propagating high-temperature synthesis, microwave and plasma, microgravity, hypergravity, and biomimetic synthesis, as well as coordination compounds, novel alloy materials, high-tech ceramics, fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes, reflecting the current technological level of inorganic material synthesis. This book can serve as a textbook for students majoring in material science and engineering at universities and colleges, and can also be referenced by technicians working in related disciplines.
