Special Issue Information

Nanomaterials are normally considered materials with at least one external dimension that measures 100 nanometers or less or with internal structures measuring 100 nm or less. They may be in the form of particles or fibers and Nanotechnology can increase the surface area of a material. This allows more atoms to interact with other materials. An increased surface area is one of the chief reasons nanometer-scale materials can be stronger, more durable, and more conductive than their larger-scale counterparts.
Nanoparticles or nanocrystals made of metals, semiconductors, or oxides are of particular interest for their mechanical, electrical, magnetic, optical, chemical and other properties. Nanoparticles have been used as quantum dots and as chemical catalysts such as nanomaterial-based catalysts and The basic idea of nanotechnology is to employ individual atoms and molecules to construct functional structures.[8] Nanotechnology can be applied to various medical fields like Pharmacological research, clinical diagnosis, supplementing immune system, cryogenic storage of biological tissues, detection of proteins.
This Special Issue aims to focus on-

1. Physical and chemical technologies for nanomaterials production and modification;
2. Applications of the functional nanomaterials;
3. Theory and modeling in the field of nanomaterials;
4. Multidisciplinary applications of nanomaterials.
5. Modern approaches to nanomaterials production and modification;
6. Strong correlation between chemical composition, size factor, and properties;
7. Novel composites based on nanomaterials;
8. Any application of nanomaterials.
