| Description: | Advances in the welfare of humans tends to be directly related to advances in the science and technology of advanced materials. Hybrid materials make up just one such class of materials, and they are unique in the sense that they exhibit properties that cannot be achieved by using conventional materials design and - at the same time - cannot be predicted by using conventional extrapolations: such as a simple weighted average of the constituents’ properties. This work tackles the current understanding of the science, engineering and technology of hybrid materials and makes an invaluable contribution to the exploitation of ‘synergy’. |
