Overview
Chemically Modified Surfaces is a monographic series designed to serve as a medium for the publication of new scientific results concerning the surface modification by means of chemical reaction. The variety of substrates that may be involved, and an equally extensive variety of modification reactions and methodologies, make this a broad topic crossing many traditional disciplinary lines. This, the third volume in the series, contains selected papers from the proceedings of a symposium entitled Chemically Modified Oxide Surfaces, held in Midland, Michigan, June 28$30, 1989. Experts from around the world presented papers on such topics as separations, catalysis, bioengineering, electronics and others areas of related interest to professionals from the various disciplines involved in the field.

Selected papers from the symposium address chemical modification of alumina and other oxides and of silica, gas phase sorption on controlled surfaces, characterization of surface-bound substances, and general topics. The subject attracts interest from a variety of disciplines--separations, catalysis, bioengineering, electronics, among others. Represented here are the diverse techniques employed for investigation in a field that has grown from a trial-and-error technology to a science. Book club price, $47. Acidic paper. Annotation c.
