Fuel cells are expected to play a major role in the future power supply that will transform to renewable, decentralized and fluctuating primary energies. At the same time the share of electric power will continually increase at the expense of thermal and mechanical energy not just in transportation, but also in households. Hydrogen as a perfect fuel for fuel cells and an outstanding and efficient means of bulk storage for renewable energy will s ...

>Schreckensfreier< Zugang: Andrea Heering zeigt mit >Jule und der Schrecken der Chemie<, dass Wissenschaft richtig Spa? macht Jule ist 13 und leidet: Schule, kleine Brudern, ignorante Eltern, eine besserwisserische Freundin Christin und – zu allem Uberfluss – hat sie auch noch Liebeskummer. Was das alles mit Chemie zu tun hat? Folgen Sie Jule durch ihren Alltag und lernen Sie so auf unterhaltsame und verstandliche Weise die Grundlagen der Chemie ...
This book is a contribution to the International Year of Planet Earth arising from the 33rd International Geological Congress, held in Oslo, Norway during August 2008. The first section of the book considers aspects of geochemical processes which led to the development of the solid Earth as it is today. The second portion of the book shows how the rapidly-evolving analytical tools and approaches presently used by geochemists may be used to solve ...
A peptidomimetic is a small protein-like chain designed to mimic a peptide with adjusted molecular properties such as enhanced stability or biological activity. It is a very powerful approach for the generation of small-molecule-based drugs as enzyme inhibitors or receptor ligands. Peptidomimetics in Organic and Medicinal Chemistry outlines the concepts and synthetic strategies underlying the building of bioactive compounds of a peptidomimetic n ...
