APPLICATIONS OFNANOMATERIALS

This book presents the aspects of nanomaterials including synthesis techniques, in vivo and biological applications along with the technologies involving day-to-day engineering aspects, clinical trials, theranostics, etc. for researchers, scientists, and students pursuing research in the field of nanotechnology. This book is a continuation of the previous book “Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications.” Distinguished authors from across the world have contributed their state-of-the-art review chapters on different aspects of nanoscience and nanotechnology of materials. The book is organized according to testing methods, preparation techniques of nanostructures, followed by nanomaterials for biomedicine, drug release, ophthalmology, dentistry, theranostics, homeopathy, and battery and solar cells.
