Research and Markets has added a book, titled Nanoscience and Nanomaterials: Synthesis, Manufacturing and Industry Impacts, to its offering.
The book provides a detailed account on synthesis and processing of nanomaterials, and explains the theory of using nanomaterials as key elements in product manufacture process. It provides explanation about the basics of biosystem-assisted, solid phase, liquid phase, and vapor phase nanoparticle synthesis. It analyzes each method and enables to identify the safest, energy-saving, and highly-productive method. Further it helps tackle difficulties in expanding nanomaterial synthesis from laboratory to manufacturing scale. The book ends with case studies of persons who made an effort to commercialize nano-based technologies for large-scale manufacturing process.
In general, the book provides an introduction and significant examination of important methods for nanoparticles synthesizing. It details about nanometrology, nanopatterning, and nanoscale processing. It explains how nanoparticles create an impact on the environment, worker safety, and quality control. It explores challenges in commercializing nanotechnology.
The key chapters covered in this book include vapor-phase synthesis, liquid-phase synthesis, solid-phase synthesis, biological system-assisted synthesis, synthesis of nanocarbon, nanoscale processing and nanopatterning techniques, nanotechnology applications in commercial sectors, quality assurance and materials characterizations, environmental, health, and safety issues, issues for industry applications, education, training, and policy for industry.
