Nanoscale Materials in Chemistry

Nanomaterials are increasingly finding more applications in the real world. Now significantly expanded to include 39 chapters, this second edition of Nanoscale Materials in Chemistry provides the most comprehensive and authoritative reference on nanoscale materials chemistry currently available. Authoritatively written by leading experts in the field, the text covers preparations, applications, characterization, environmental, and toxicological aspects of nanoscale materials, with a particular focus on the chemistry involved, making it suitable as a primary text for graduate courses and a reliable comprehensive resource for scientists.

Kenneth J. Klabunde, Phd, is the University Distinguished Professor at Kansas State University. His research focuses on materials science, nanoscale particles, magnetic properties of nanoscale iron particles, adsorption properties of nanoscale metal oxide properties, and organometallic chemistry. He is the editor of the first edition of Nanoscale Materials in Chemistry, also published by Wiley. Ryan M. Richards, Phd, is Associate Professor of Chemistry at the Colorado School of Mines. His research interests include nanoparticle preparations and characterization, as well as heterogeneous and enantioselective catalysis.
