Foreword
When asked to write a foreword for this new book on functional materials, I initially
hesitated to comply with the request for a few simple reasons. First of all, new journals
and books on functional materials are sprouting these days like cabbage in the spring.
This is even more the case for original research papers printed in the usual disci-
plinary journals in chemistry, physics, medicine, and engineering. Consequently, it is
almost impossible to critically keep track and differentiate important studies from the
less significant ones. Moreover, not every original contribution contains completely
novel work, as many of them are instead additions to already well-known facts or well-
accepted lines of thought. In addition, the word “functional” implies that the material
serves a specific and defined purpose in a unique manner; but many contributors to
the field forget or overlook the fact that the material under consideration or subject
under study is just one of many components in a device and its function only evolves
through interplay with all the other components in the device. Note that even the sim-
plest of all rechargeable batteries as an example of a device contains at least a dozen
different functional materials, which all need to comply with the overall performance
of the battery. Thus, compatibility of materials is an important issue frequently over-
looked by eager researchers.
These critical remarks should not be misunderstood. We do not argue against aca-
demically motivated research in materials science. On the contrary, we think that high
quality work aiming at improved, optimized, and – to some extent – novel functional
materials is a necessity. We would merely like to express a warning against exagger-
ated promises and hopes that have no basis in the world of practice. After all, research
on functional materials must envisage practical solutions and is never justified as a
purely academic exercise. The clash between academic ideas and the reality of the
industry and the markets is nowhere harsher than in this field of science.
Despite these critical remarks, it is highly appreciated that this book is not simply
a review of the vast body of literature of the recent years, as it holds the focus upon
various aspects of application. Moreover, it selects only a few topics in favor of a solid
and thorough treatment of the relevant aspects. It is particularly pleasing that poly-
mer colloids receive much attention. Polymer colloids have seen an impressive revival
as a subject of academic research. This is a bit surprising at first sight, given the sit-
uation that emulsion and suspension polymerization processes have served as major
industrial processes in the mass production of polymers, to supply markets with ma-
terials for the coatings and adhesives industry, as textile and leather modifiers and as
constituent in cosmetics, just to mention a few. However, the widespread interest in
nanotechnology has guided the researchers to develop methods which not simply aim
at the synthesis of new molecules, but rather target the production of defined objects.
These nanosized objects are not only composed of different molecules, each type of
molecule contributing different functions to the object, but they also exhibit a defined
VI | Foreword
shape and size distribution, have a defined and controllable surface structure, and a
structured internal composition.
Similar cases are characteristic of the synthesis of mesoporous materials, which
have a long history as absorbents and filtering materials in industry, but have also
found new attention, with the desire to embed more functions into these materials
than was previously possible. This includes better control of pore structure and pore
size distribution. Here again, the target of the synthesis is the object, and not the indi-
vidual molecule which would only later be subject to further processing. Similarly,
nanoscale pigments have been available through industrial processes for decades.
Nevertheless, academic interest centers on the development of novel pigments with
particular size distribution, surface structure, and function, as well as specific elec-
tromagnetic properties. The definition of viable conditions for mass production by in-
dustrially acceptable processes is a key to the success of such research.
All of these aspects are treated in this book. In addition, materials for energy
storage (batteries and capacitors) as well as fuel cells are brought to the readers’s
attention. Last but not least, materials aiming towards application in the vast field
of biomedicine are discussed, described, and critically evaluated. Biocompatibility,
safety aspects, and the essential approval by the authorities are important aspects not
to be overlooked in this area, requiring extensive knowledge in both materials science
and medicine.
In summary, this book comes at a good time, when a large body of academic liter-
ature has been accumulated and is waiting for a critical inspection in the light of the
real demands of application. This book will provide valuable information to a critical
readership and should receive wide-spread recognition from the scientific community.
Synthesis
Properties
Structure
Performance
Fig. 1. The field of functional materials is by definition interdisciplinary, involving scientists from
various backgrounds in designing and synthesizing new materials with structure and properties
tailored in order to achieve optimal performance.
This book is addressed to experts as well as graduate students interested in the most
recent developments in the field of functional materials. It includes 15 chapters which
are organized in three sections focusing on (1) the synthesis and applications of func-
tional materials, (2) novel materials for energy applications, and (3) new trends in
functional materials for sustainable development and biomedical applications. The
chapters have been written by recognized experts in their respective fields and cover
topics ranging from fundamental concepts in synthesis to applied research projects.
Recent examples of how functional materials are improving many aspects of technol-
ogy currently available to us on a daily basis are also discussed. The authors are all
VIII | Preface
members of the Quebec Center for Functional Materials (CQMF), a research center lo-
cated in Quebec, Canada, and are internationally known for their work in the devel-
opment of innovative and state-of-the-art functional materials.
In summary, this book provides an overview of the recent advances made in syn-
thesis, characterization, and computer modeling, as well as various applications in-
volving functional materials, and should be of great interest for the scientific commu-
nity working in this area of research. The authors are grateful to Mrs. Patricia Basque
(CQMF), and Mr. Philippe Dufour (NanoULaval) for their collaboration, and to Mrs.
Karin Sora (De Gruyter), Mrs. Julia Lauterbach (De Gruyter), and Mrs. Kathleen Prüfer
(De Gruyter) for their assistance in editing this book. We also acknowledge financial
support from the FRQNT-Strategic Networks Funding Program, which provides the op-
portunity to bring scientists and engineers together in order to develop novel and in-
novative technologies.
