The use of nanomaterials has meant that consumer products can be made lighter, stronger, esthetically more pleasing, and less expensive. The significant role of nanomaterials in improving the quality of life is clear, resulting in faster computers, cleaner energy production, target-driven pharmaceuticals, and better construction materials. It is not surprising, therefore, that nanomaterial research has really taken off, spanning across different scientific disciplines from material science to nanotoxicology. A critical part of any nanomaterial research, however, is the need to characterize physicochemical properties of the nanomaterials, which is not a trivial matter. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNanomaterial Characterization: An Introduction\u003c\/i\u003e is dedicated to understanding the key physicochemical properties and their characterization methods. Each chapter begins by giving an overview of the topic before a case study is presented. The purpose of the case study is to demonstrate how the reader may make use of the background information presented to them and show how this can be translated to solve a nanospecific application scenario. Thus, it will be useful for researchers in helping them design experimental investigations. The book begins with a general overview of the subject, thus giving the reader a solid foundation to nanomaterial characterization. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNanomaterial Characterization: An Introduction\u003c\/i\u003e features: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNanomaterial synthesis and reference nananomaterials\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKey physicochemical properties and their measurements including particle size distribution by number, solubility, surface area, surface chemistry, mechanical\/tribological properties, and dustiness\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScanning tunneling microscopy methods operated under extreme conditions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNovel strategy for biological characterization of nanomaterial methods\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMethods to handle and visualize multidimensional nanomaterial characterization data\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is written in such a way that both students and experts in other fields of science will find the information useful, whether they are in academia, industry, or regulation, or those whose analytical background may be limited.There is also an extensive list of references associated with every chapter to encourage further reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ratna Tantra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1118753593\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781118753590\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/04\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.80d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ratna Tantra","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47001334120703,"sku":"9781118753590","price":116.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_46fa857c-016b-44c8-98e1-9dc4a760bd6c.jpg?v=1751600768","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nanomaterial-characterization-ratna-tantra-9781118753590","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
