This research and reference text will provide fundamental knowledge of the wide variety of functional carbon materials, including fullerene, carbon dots, carbon fibers and nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphite, graphyne, diamonds, activated carbon and carbon aerogels. Each chapter has a clear structure and provides comprehensive coverage of the structure and properties of each material, which will assist researchers with tuning the material structures for different applications.The current research status and future challenges will also be discussed, and there will be a particular focus on the wide-ranging engineering applications of each material. In addition, the text will provide the latest research developments and discuss the latest novel carbon types, including graphyne.The text will provide an authoritative reference for researchers and will be particularly valuable for early-career researchers seeking a comprehensive introduction to the field. It will also be valuable supplementary reading for courses on carbon and carbon materials.
