Nanochemistry: Chemistry of Nanoparticle Formation and Interactions provides an overview of the chemistry aspects of nanoparticle science, including nanoparticle synthesis, chemical properties, stability, applications and self-assembly behavior. The critical concepts discussed in this book represent the necessary toolbox for enabling the rational design of nanoparticle-based materials for target applications. After an introduction to standard analytical techniques used for nanoparticle characterization, four separate chapters cover inorganic, organic, polymer nanoparticles, and carbon nanostructures to highlight the synthetic protocols, structural intricacies, and chemical properties specific to each of these material classes.

Finally, physicochemical phenomena governing self-assembly behavior of nanoparticles are also discussed in detail separately. This book is intended for senior undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students and research scientists in nanoscience and nanotechnology, material science, chemistry, physics, biomedical sciences and relevant engineering fields that want to develop a deeper understanding of the governing chemical principles on the nanoscale.

Anna Klinkova is Assistant Professor of Chemistry at the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology, based at the University of Waterloo, Canada. After completing degrees at Saint Petersburg State University, Russia, and Bowling Green State University, USA, she went on to obtain her doctorate at the University of Toronto. Professor Klinkova has been with the University of Waterloo since 2017, where her research concentrates on the synthesis and self-assembly of inorganic and soft-matter nanomaterials, heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemistry and plasmonics. She teaches various courses in the undergraduate Nanotechnology Engineering program and in the interdisciplinary graduate Nanotechnology program.

Héloïse Thérien-Aubin is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. After completing her doctoral degree at the Université de Montréal she was a postdoctoral researcher at Cornell University and the University of Toronto and a group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research. In 2021 she joined Memorial, where her research focuses on the design of polymers and polymer nanomaterials and the study of interactions in nanoconfined systems.
