The Making of Carbon Materials, edited by T. In. Komarova and N. G. Digurova is a textbook that will become an indispensable source of knowledge for students, graduate students and specialists in the field of chemistry, materials science and engineering. Published at Moscow State University of Chemistry and Technology, this work is a deep dive into the world of carbon materials, their properties, methods of production and application. Carbon materials play a key role in modern technologies, from electronics to energy, and their importance continues to grow. The book discusses various aspects related to the synthesis of carbon materials, including graphene, carbon nanotubes, and other forms of carbon. The author’s team, consisting of leading experts in this field, shares their knowledge and experience, which makes the manual not only theoretically sound, but also practical. The book will be of interest not only to students and researchers, but also to practicing engineers working in the field of developing new materials. It is suitable for readers interested in modern technologies, innovations in materials science and the processes that are behind the creation of new carbon structures. The age category of readers is not limited, but it will be especially useful for those who already have basic knowledge in chemistry and materials science. One of the key topics raised in the book is the impact of the structure of carbon materials on their physical and chemical properties. Readers will be able to learn about how different synthesis methods, such as pyrolysis, gas phase deposition, and others, affect the final characteristics of materials. This knowledge is important for the development of new technologies that can change the approach to the creation of electronics, batteries, catalysts and many other products. The style of the author and editors is clear and accessible, which allows even complex scientific concepts to be presented in an understandable form. T. In. Komarova and N. G. Digurov are known for their scientific publications and research in the field of carbon materials, and their experience, combined with the work of other authors, makes this manual especially valuable. The book is not only informative, but also inspires further research, emphasizing the importance of carbon materials in the future. In addition, "Getting carbon materials" may be useful for those interested in the environmental aspects of carbon use. In the context of global climate change and the search for sustainable solutions, the book raises questions about how carbon materials can be used to create more efficient and environmentally friendly technologies. If you are looking for information about modern materials, their properties and methods of obtaining, this guide will become your reliable companion. It will be interesting for those who study chemistry, physics, engineering and related disciplines, as well as for those who want to be aware of the latest achievements in the field of materials science. Thus, «Getting carbon materials» is not just a textbook, but a real encyclopedia of knowledge that will help the reader to better understand the world of carbon materials and their role in modern society. Do not miss the opportunity to enrich your knowledge and expand your horizons in this exciting area!
