Riassunto

Nanoscience and Its Applications explores how nanoscience is used in modern industry to increase product performance, including an understanding of how these materials and systems, at the molecular level, provide novel properties and physical, chemical, and biological phenomena that have been successfully used in innovative ways in a wide range of industries.

This book is an important reference source for early-career researchers and practicing materials scientists and engineers seeking a greater understanding on how nanoscience can be used in modern industries.

• Provides a detailed overview of how nanoscience is used to increase product efficiency in a variety of fields, from agribusiness to medicine,
• Shows how nanoscience can help product developers increase product performance whilst reducing costs
• Illustrates how nanoscience has been used innovatively in a great variety of disciplines, giving those working in many different industries ideas as to how nanoscience might answer important questions
