Chemical sensors are integral to the automation of myriad industrial processes,
as well as everyday monitoring of such activities as public safety, engine
performance, medical therapeutics, and many more. This massive reference work
will cover all major categories of chemical sensor materials and devices, and
their general functional usage...from monitoring and analyzing gases, to
analyzing liquids and compounds of all kinds. This is THE reference work on
sensors used for chemical detection and analysis. In this third volume will be
found new applications for chemical sensing, using materials developments in
polymers, calixarenes, biological and biomimetic systems, novel semiconductors,
and ionic conductors.
