| Summary |
Synthesis of Nanomaterials is a beginner's guide to the synthesis and characterization of biomaterials for medical devices and implants. It presents 8 chapters explaining the use of biomaterials in medicine and pharmacology. The concepts are explained with the guidance of specialists who present the principal techniques and methods to obtain high-performance polymers and composite materials. Starting with an introduction to the subject, the book explains nanom |
