About this title

Synopsis

The chemical and structural makeup of materials' surfaces play a major role in their environmental stability and reactivity. No one has done more to understand the mechanisms that control the surface reactivity of glasses than Larry L. Hench. The goal of this symposium, held in his honor, is to provide a perspective of this field through a discussion of the critical studies that have formed its foundation and the great discoveries that the future holds.

The book provides state-of-the-art science and technology and provides illustrative examples of how to progress from concept to product.
