Publisher's Synopsis
The second release of the Sixth Edition of Ullmann′s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry is now available. About 70 articles have been revised and brought up–to–date, and new developments have also been taken into account by the inclusion of completely new articles, such as ′Combinatorial Chemistry′, ′High–Throughput Screening′, ′Metallocenes′, ′Sonochemistry′, ′Microreactors′ oder ′Visualization Techniques′. Again, the outstanding high quality of the content distinguishes Ullmann′s from other reference works: all data have been checked, all articles have been designed to meet the users′ needs.
