Metal-organic frameworks (MOF)-based materials are used for functional applications due to their large surface area, high porosity, tunable structure, controllable morphology, and surface functionality. This book explores MOF-derived materials focusing on their structural features, synthesis methods, unique properties, and versatile applications including underlying chemistry. It covers research developments in the field for design of novel carbon materials and metal-based materials from MOF and their composites, including specific applications.

Features:

• Provides a comprehensive idea regarding the fundamental chemistry of MOF-derived materials.
• Covers all the aspects of MOF-derived materials with focus on derived carbon/metal species and composite materials.
• Includes application of MOF-derived materials specifically for environmental and energy.
• Conveys a sense of relation between structure, property, and application of MOF-derived materials.
• Explores developments in the different types of MOF-derived materials.

This book is aimed at senior undergraduate, graduate students, and researchers in materials science, chemical engineering, and chemistry.
