A unique guide to an essential area of nanoscience

Interest in nano-sized metals has increased greatly due to their
special characteristics and suitability for a number of advanced
applications. As technology becomes more refined-including the
ability to effectively manipulate and stabilize metals at the
nanoscale-these materials present ever-more workable solutions to a
growing range of problems.

Metal-Polymer Nanocomposites provides the first guide
solely devoted to the unique properties and applications of this
essential area of nanoscience. It offers a truly multidisciplinary
approach, making the text accessible to readers in physical,
chemical, and materials science as well as areas such as
engineering and topology.

The thorough coverage includes:

* The chemical and physical properties of nano-sized metals

* Different approaches to the synthesis of metal-polymer
nanocomposites (MPN)

* Advanced characterization techniques and methods for study of
MPN

* Real-world applications, including color filters, polarizers,
optical sensors, nonlinear optical devices, and more

* An extensive list of references on the topics covered

A unique, cutting-edge resource for a vital area of nanoscience
development, Metal-Polymer Nanocomposites is an invaluable
text for students and practitioners of materials science,
engineering, polymer science, chemical engineering, electrical
engineering, and optics.
