Inhaltsangabe

Advanced Ceramics for Versatile Interdisciplinary Applications describes recent progress in ceramic synthesis and their applications in areas of catalysis, lithium-ion batteries, microbial fuel cells, and biomedical applications. Advancements in ceramic syntheses, such as laser additive manufacturing technologies are also discussed, as are developments in magnetic-based, doped and piezoelectric ceramics and their applications. Other sections cover mixed ionic-electronic conducting ceramic membranes for electrochemical applications, ceramic separators for microbial fuel cells, ceramic polymer composites for lithium-ion batteries, and hybrid ceramic nanocomposites for catalysis applications.

The use of metal and metal oxide nanostructures as antimicrobial agents offer a wide range of advantages, ranging from straightforward synthesis to less prone towards resistance development by microbes. Finally, the development of biocompatible ceramic materials, mechanical and chemical properties, and applications are discussed in detail. The book will be useful for new researchers, academics and postgraduate students all working in the area of ceramics and their potential applications.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Dr. Shiv Singh is currently working as a scientist and assistant professor in CSIR-AMPRI, Bhopal, India. He received his Ph.D. (2015) in chemical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India. He has expertise in the synthesis of novel carbon-based nanomaterials for energy application. During his Ph.D. (development of metal nanoparticles dispersed carbon micro and nanofibers for biochemical and energy applications), he gained expertise to synthesize inexpensive, chemical vapor deposition grown graphitic carbon materials (CNF/CNT/CNP/Graphene) for biochemical and energy applications. He also had one year’s post-doctoral experience at the Korea Institute of Materials Science, South Korea where they synthesized ultrahigh temperature ceramic composites via polymer infiltration and pyrolysis, and the chemical vapor infiltration process. Currently, he is working on electrode materials for bio/electrochemical reduction of CO2 to value-added products and bioenergy and H2 generation from wastewater. He has more than 30 publications (in high-impact international journals) a few book chapters and one listed patent. Dr. Singh also received the Seal of Excellence certificate from Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions call H2020-MSCA-IF-2018/19 the European Commission.

Advanced Ceramics for Versatile Interdisciplinary Applications, describes recent progress in ceramic synthesis and their applications in areas of catalysis, lithium-ion batteries, microbial fuel cells, and biomedical applications. Advancements in ceramic syntheses, such as laser additive manufacturing technologies, are also discussed. The latest developments in magnetic-based, doped and piezoelectric ceramics and their applications are also covered in detail. The book also discusses mixed ionic-electronic conducting ceramic membranes for electrochemical applications, ceramic separators for microbial fuel cells, ceramic polymer composites for lithium-ion batteries, and hybrid ceramic nanocomposites for catalysis applications. The resistance of microbes to existing antibiotics is an issue of global concern. The use of metal and metal oxide nanostructures as antimicrobial agents offer a wide range of advantages ranging from straightforward synthesis to less prone towards resistance development by microbes. The development of biocompatible ceramic materials, mechanical and chemical properties, and applications are discussed in detail. The book will be useful for new researchers, academics, and postgraduate students all working in the area of ceramics and their potential applications.
