Schneider Hans-Jörg (Ed.) Applications of Supramolecular Chemistry

CRC Press; Taylor & Francis Group, 2016. — 449 p. — ISBN-13 978-1-4398-4015-3.Applications of Supramolecular Chemistry introduces the use of non-covalent interactions and molecular recognition for many fields. Applications include the analysis of technically, medically, and environmentally important chemical compounds, their separation, purification and removal, and the design of new materials, including supramolecular electronics. The book also explores biological interactions and applications in the food and textile industries.Introduction and Overview
