About this book
This unique volume, with its clearly written text and many illustrative figures and diagrams, demonstrates the advantages of the high-adsorption capacity and rate and the easy handling of new polymeric adsorbents over conventional adsorbents. The dynamic behavior of graft chains as described here is certain to appeal especially to chemists, physicists, and material scientists as well as to other readers with an interest in this valuable subject.

About the authors
Kunio FUJIWARA is the Division Manager of Research and Development at KJK Co., Takasaki, Japan. He worked at EBAEA Co. from 1973 to 2010, where he succeeded in commercializing chemical filters capable of removing trace amounts of impurities in air from ultraclean rooms of semiconductor fabrication plants. He was the first person to design and operate a continuous production system of materials by preirradiation grafting. He received his Ph.D. from Chiba University in 2015.
Takanobu SUGO is President of KJKCo., Takasaki, Japan. He started research on radiation chemistry at Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute in 1965. In 1986, he won the Award from the Director-General of the Science and Technology Agency, Japan, for the development of the diaphragm of alkaline batteries. He collected about 1 kg of uranium from seawater using an adsorbent-packed bed submerged in the Pacific Ocean in 1999. He founded KJK Co., Takasaki, Japan, in 1999. He received his Ph.D. from National Institution for Academic Degrees, Japan, in 2001.
