This book is a review of the science and technology of the element carbon and its allotropes: graphite, diamond and the fullerenes. This field has expanded greatly in the last three decades stimulated by many major discoveries such as carbon fibers, low-pressure diamond and the fullerenes. The need for such a book has been felt for some time. These carbon materials are very different in structure and properties. Some are very old (charcoal), others brand new (the fullerenes). They have different applications and markets and are produced by different segments of the industry. The carbon and graphite industry is in a state of considerable flux as new designs, new products and new materials, such as high-strength fibers, glassy carbon and pyrolytic graphite, are continuously being introduced. Likewise, a revolution in the diamond business is in progress as the low-pressure process becomes an industrial reality. It will soon be possible to take advantage of the outstanding properties of diamond to develop a myriad of new applications. The production of large diamond crystal at low cost is a distinct possibility in the not-too-distant future and may lead to a drastic change of the existing business structure. The fullerenes may also create their own revolution in the development of an entirely new branch of organic chemistry. Few studies are available that attempt to review the entire field of carbon as a whole discipline. Moreover these studies were written several decades ago and a generally outdated since the development of the technology is moving very rapidly and scope of applications is constantly expanding and reaching into new fields such as aerospace, automotive, semiconductors, optics, and electronics. In this book the author provides a valuable, up-to-date account of both the newer and traditional forms of carbon, both naturally occurring and man-made. This volume will be a valuable resource for both specialists in, and occasional users of carbon materials.
