Researchers and engineers working in nuclear laboratories, nuclear
electric plants, and elsewhere in the radiochemical industries need
a comprehensive handbook describing all possible
radiation-chemistry interactions between irradiation and materials,
the preparation of materials under distinct radiation types, the
possibility of damage of materials under irradiation, and more.
Radiation nanotechnology is still practically an undeveloped field,
except for some achievements in the fabrication of metallic
nanoparticles under ionizing flows. Radiation Synthesis of
Materials and Compounds presents the state of the art of the
synthesis of materials, composites, and chemical compounds, and
describes methods based on the use of ionizing radiation. It is
devoted to the preparation of various types of materials (including
nanomaterials) and chemical compounds using ionizing radiation
(alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, x-rays, and neutron,
proton, and ion beams). The book presents contributions from
leaders in the areas of radiation synthesis of materials and
radiation damage, providing thorough and expert information for a
wide range of readers, including advanced students, researchers,
industrial practitioners, and university educators.
This book describes a series of contemporary techniques and their
combinations used for CNTs solubilization, from physical to
chemical and biological, applying inorganic and organic compounds,
as well as some metal complexes. In some cases, successive steps
can be applied, for instance the use of low and high-weight
surfactants, or mineral acid treatment for creation of -OH and
-COOH groups and their further interaction with organic molecules.
Each discussed method leads to an improvement of CNT solubility,
frequently a considerable one. The formed dispersions can be stable
for long periods of time, from several weeks to some months, and
they sometimes even remain stable after centrifugation. Several
special studies have been carried out in the areas of influence of
solvent and light on CNTs dispersibility, combinations and
abilities of surfactants, CNT cytotoxicity, etc. Applications of
solubilized CNTs are discussed in this book as well.

This book provides a detailed description of metal-complex
functionalized carbon allotrope forms, including classic (such as
graphite), rare (such as M- or T-carbon), and nanoforms (such as
carbon nanotubes, nanodiamonds, etc.). Filling a void in the
nanotechnology literature, the book presents chapters generalizing
the synthesis, structure, properties, and applications of all known
carbon allotropes. Metal-complex composites of carbons are
described, along with several examples of their preparation and
characterization, soluble metal-complex carbon composites,
cost-benefit data, metal complexes as precursors of carbon
allotropes, and applications. A lab manual on the synthesis and
characterization of carbon allotropes and their metal-complex
composites is included. Provides a complete description of all
carbon allotropes, both classic and rare, as well as carbon
nanostructures and their metal-complex composites; Contains a
laboratory manual of experiments on the synthesis and
characterization of metal-complex carbon composites; Discusses
applications in diverse fields, such as catalysis on supporting
materials, water treatment, sensors, drug delivery, and devices.
The CRC Concise Encyclopedia of Nanotechnology sets the standard
against which all other references of this nature are measured. As
such, it is a major resource for both skilled professionals and
novices to nanotechnology. The book examines the design,
application, and utilization of devices, techniques, and
technologies critical to research at the atomic, molecular, and
macromolecular levels ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers. More than
three dozen specific topics are examined, including nanomaterials,
nanocatalysts, nanoceramics, nanocrystals, carbon nanotubes, drug
delivery, nanopolymers, nanoparticles, nanocoatings, and
nanomedicine. The material is presented in a concise manner and has
been updated to reflect the latest applications and research
findings. Entries are organized alphabetically, making information
easy to find. While coverage is comprehensive, each topic is
presented concisely with a wealth of illustrative material and an
accompanying eBook providing full-color figures and images.
This exhaustive Handbook covers the synthesis and applications of
nanomaterials that can be used in energy and environmental science
applications. Given the pressing need for more efficient energy
sources at lower costs, this book will help to provide a more
cohesive understanding of nanocomposites and nanomaterials. Each
chapter in this handbook is written by an expert in his or her
field, and topics ranging from energy efficiency to material
performance are presented. Catalysis, ceramic science, metallurgy,
coatings, and green, sustainable materials are included. This
Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to the field of applied
nanomaterials. It will drive interest and research in the use of
nanocomposites and nanomaterials for energy and environmental
applications.
