Archaeological Chemistry (RSC Paperbacks)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2008

The second edition of this popular title Archaeological Chemistry builds on the successful formula of the first edition. The existing case studies have been expanded to take account of new perspectives and new data in the intervening decade since the 1st edition was published. In addition, two new chapters emphasise the significant increase in...

Management of Ageing Processes in Graphite Reactor Cores (Special Publication)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

Many nuclear reactors and components are coming to the end of their 'useful' life and strategies for the effective management of these decommissioned parts are paramount. Management of Ageing Processes in Graphite Reactor Cores discusses in detail both the scientific challenges and the issues involved in this subject. Covering fundamentals of...

Clean Technology for the Manufacture of Specialty Chemicals

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2001

Producing large quantities of waste is not only environmentally unacceptable, it is also not viable in economic terms. The chemical industry, particularly the speciality and pharmaceuticals sectors, is becoming increasingly aware of the advantages associated with clean technology, particularly in terms of competitive advantage and environmental...

Male-mediated Developmental Toxicity (Issues in Toxicology)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

The issue of male germ line mutagenesis and the effects on developmental defects in the next generation has become increasingly high profile over recent years. Mutations are thought to be becoming more prevalent as a result of: exposure to chemicals in the environment; anti-cancer regimes that use genotoxic agents and assisted conception...

Metal-Catalysis in Industrial Organic Processes

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2006

Catalysis underpins most modern industrial organic processes. It has become an essential tool in creating a 'greener' chemical industry by replacing more traditional stoichiometric reactions, which have high energy consumption and high waste production, with mild processes which increasingly resemble Nature's enzymes.

Metal-Catalysis in...

The Chemistry and Biology of Winemaking

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

The Chemistry and Biology of Winemaking not only discusses the science of winemaking but also aims to provide the reader with a wider appreciation of the impact of oenology on human society. Beginning with a history of wine the book discusses a wide range of topics, with particular emphasis on the organisms involved.

This book is ideal for...

PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CALCULATION (RSC Paperbacks)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 1997

The aim of this textbook is to treat each numerical problem in basic physical chemistry with a systematic step-wise approach of a working method. It hopes to encourage students to think out their own approach. It covers the basic principles of introductory physical chemistry. Each chapter contains an introduction, followed by a typical examination...

Chemistry of Photography

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

Carried in wallets and displayed in homes, photographs are a common, but often an overlooked feature of modern life. And, with the advent of digital technology many believe that the so called 'wet chemistry' behind old fashioned photography is a thing of the past - but is it?

The Chemistry of Photography endeavours to unravel the mysteries of...

Fullerenes: Principles and Applications (RSC Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Series)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

The discovery of caged carbon structures, in 1985, established a whole new field of carbon chemistry. Unlike graphite and diamond, these structures known as fullerenes are finite in structure and are relevant to a wide variety of fields including supramolecular assemblies, nanostructures, optoelectronic devices and a whole range of biological...

Functional Group Chemistry (Tutorial Chemistry Texts)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2001

Functional Group Chemistry presents the chemistry of functional groups with an emphasis on patterns of reactivity, the consequences of the relative electronegativity of the atoms that constitute functional groups, the role of lone pairs and the stereochemistry of reactions at a particular group. The material is presented in four chapters. The...

Extraction of Organic Analytes from Food: A Manual of Methods

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2005

This book is designed as a laboratory manual of methods used for the preparation and extraction of organic chemical compounds from food sources. It offers ideas on how to facilitate progress towards the total automation of the assay, as well as proposing assays for unknowns by comparison with known methods.

Beginning with an...

Biodiversity under Threat (Issues in Environmental Science and Technology)

Royal Society of Chemistry, 2007

'This is a timely, thoughtful and authoritative account of the current state of play on the ecological battlefront'. Rouvray D., 2008. Biodiversity for chemists. Chemistry World, 5 (1), p.p.64-65.

There is much public concern about threats to global biodiversity. Industrial pollution, changes in agricultural practices...
