Hyperbranched and dendronized polymers such as 40, 41, and 42 have also been synthesized using the transition metal coupling strategies in recent years.32 These polymers are fundamentally different from those traditional linear polymers. They possess dendritic arms within die polymer or along the polymer backbone. It is believed that they possess interesting properties and have potential applications in many fields such as nanotechnology and catalysis ...

The fact that relatively few commercial processes currently utilize dehydrogenases, in spite of the high level of interest at the research and bench scales, argues that progress is needed in this area before these enzymes can be considered to be a normal part of chemical synthesis. Many of these advances will come by partnerships with genomics, nanotechnology and computational approaches. In the discovery area, key questions for the future are ... 

Application of coordination compounds in medicine, materials chemistry, and as catalysts are mentioned and are cross-referenced to a fuller discussion in Volume 9. Comment is made on application of complexes in nanotechnology, and on the molecular modeling of complexes. The material cannot be totally comprehensive because of space limitations, but is selected in such a way to give the most effective review of discoveries and new interpretations. 

Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers have drawn considerable interest in recent years due to their potential applications in medicine, nanotechnology, and catalysis (6,7). The ability to control dendrimer interior/exterior functionalities and the macromolecular architecture of PAMAM dendrimers...

Pores are found in many solids and the term porosity is often used quite arbitrarily to describe many different properties of such materials. Occasionally, it is used to indicate the mere presence of pores in a material, sometimes as a measure for the size of the pores, and often as a measure for the amount of pores present in a material. The latter is closest to its physical definition. The porosity of a material is defined as the ratio between the pore volume of a particle and its total volume (pore volume + volume of solid) [1]. A certain porosity is a common feature of most heterogeneous catalysts. The pores are either formed by voids between small aggregated particles (textural porosity) or they are intrinsic structural features of the materials (structural porosity). According to the IUPAC notation, porous materials are classified with respect to their sizes into three groups microporous, mesoporous, and macroporous materials [2], Microporous materials have pores with diameters < 2 nm, mesoporous materials have pore diameters between 2 and 50 nm, and macroporous materials have pore diameters > 50 nm. Nowadays, some authors use the term nanoporosity which, however, has no clear definition but is typically used in combination with nanotechnology and nanochemistry for materials with pore sizes in the nanometer range, i.e., 0.1 to 100 nm. Nanoporous could thus mean everything from microporous to macroporous.

This book is dedicated exclusively to the family of nanocarbon hybrids covering a multidisciplinary research field that combines materials chemistry and physics with nanotechnology and applied energy sciences. It provides both introductory material on fundamental principles as well as reviews of the current research. Therefore, this book should be helpful for Master and PhD students wishing to become familiar with a modern field of knowledge-driven material science as well as for senior researchers and industrial staff scientists who explore the frontiers of knowledge.
