Explains each step in designing and processing nanoparticulate materials
With detailed coverage of synthesis, characterization, assembly, shaping, and sintering, this book offers a systematic and comprehensive treatment of nanoparticulate materials. The author helps readers make the bridge from conventional particulate materials to nanoparticle-based materials, pointing out the key similarities and differences. Moreover, readers will learn about the many types of new and emerging nanoparticulate materials, including metals, ceramics, and semiconductors.
Chapters are arranged in logical order, enabling readers to follow the typical sequence of tasks needed to design and process nanoparticulate materials. The book begins with an introductory chapter, which includes an overview of processing and key scientific and technical challenges. Next, it covers:
Nanoparticulate Materials is ideal for students, offering them a broad overview of the fundamentals in the field. All chapters are self-contained units, enabling instructors to easily adapt this book for coursework. The book also sets forth the latest advances and new frontiers of research for more experienced materials researchers and engineers.
