Handbook of Metalloproteins

The Handbook of Metalloproteins covers a number of metals, including iron, nickel, manganese, cobalt, copper and vanadium, and provides detailed information on proteins found in the redox-inactive ions of zinc and calcium. It includes comprehensive coverage for each metalloprotein.

Energy & Environmental Science

Energy and Environmental Science is a new journal linking all aspects of the chemical sciences relating to energy conversion and storage, alternative fuel technologies and environmental science.

The journal recognises the complexity of issues and challenges relating to energy and environmental science and therefore particularly welcomes work of an interdisciplinary nature across both the (bio) chemical sciences and chemical engineering disciplines.

Advanced Materials Research

Advanced Materials Research specializes in the very rapid publication of international conference proceedings and stand-alone volumes on topics of current interest in All areas of materials research.

e-EROS : Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis

e-EROS, the online version of the critically acclaimed Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis.  e-EROS has been designed and developed by chemists for chemists to enable the user to find the most suitable reagent for performing particular reactions. A variety of searching options are available that mirror the way chemists think. Searching can be conducted in both query text and structure driven modes.

Chemical Engineering : Modelling, Simulation and Similitude

A description of the use of computer aided modeling and simulation in the development, integration and optimization of industrial processes. The two authors elucidate the entire procedure step-by-step, from basic mathematical modeling to result interpretation and full-scale process performance analysis.

Chemistry of the Cyclopropyl Group

Volume one of the series The Chemistry of Functional Groups , a series of advanced treatises under the general editorship of Professor Saul Patai.

Environmental Colloids and Particles

This text presents the current knowledge of environmental colloids and includes reviews of the current understanding of structure, role and behaviour of environmental colloids and particles, whilst focussing directly on aquatic systems and soils.

Greene’s Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis

The Fourth Edition of Greene’s Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis continues to be an indispensable reference for controlling the reactivity of the most common functional groups during a synthetic sequence. This new edition incorporates the significant developments in the field since publication of the third edition.

Handbook of Plastics Testing and Failure Analysis

This book updates and revises its bestselling predecessor to become the most complete, comprehensive resource on plastics testing. This book has an emphasis on significance of test methods and interpretation of results.
