Abstract

AbstractThe ever mounting demand for speciality materials with superior material behaviours have fast-driven the development and performance evaluation of advanced functional polymers. Further, polymer are those wonder matrices, whose overall material functionalities can be thoughtfully tailored via appropriate surface functionalization and/or using dopants. Accordingly, such functional materials with engineerable material properties can be successfully employed for various commercial applications. And energy and environment applications are no exception. Going forward, this chapter gives a brief introduction to polymer-based advanced functional materials and their energy and environment related applications. Also, this chapter being the introductory chapter of the monograph titled polymer-based advanced functional materials for energy and environmental applications, it furnishes the details pertaining to various chapters covered in the said monograph.KeywordsAdvanced functional polymersEnergyEnvironmentApplicationsSustainability
