Nanochemistry. This item is unavailable.Nanochemistry

The second edition of Nanochemistry covers the main studies of nanoparticle production, reactions, and compounds, and reviews the work of leading scientists from around the world. This book is the first monograph on nanochemistry, giving perspectives on the present status and future possibilities in this rapidly advancing discipline. It provides the solid fundamentals and theory of nanoscience, and progress through topics including synthesis and stabilization of nanoparticles, cryochemistry of metal atoms and nanoparticles, chemical nanoreactors, and more.

Nanoparticles are capable of transformations that have already led to revolutionary applications, including reagents for self-cleaning glass surfaces and fabrics, different antiseptic coverings, sensors for monitoring the environment and catalysts mitigating pollution.

• Leads the reader through the theory, research and key applications of nanochemistry, providing a thorough reference for researchers
• 40% more content than the first edition and an expanded author team
• Reviews new advances in the field, including organic nanoparticles and key methods for making nanoparticles (e.g. solvated metal atom dispersion and self-assembly techniques)

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 focuses on the development of functional nanomaterials and nanocatalysts for a variety of applications, including catalytic carbon dioxide conversion into fuels and chemical feedstocks, organic electrosynthesis, enantioselective catalysis, energy harvesting systems, and plasmonic solar cells.
