Nanostructured Materials: Physicochemical Chemistry Fundamentals for Energy and Environmental Applications

Efficient use of energy, eco-friendly environmental systems, and technologies play an important role in global sustainable development. Multifunctional nanocomposites have excellent properties and can meet the practical needs of energy development and environmental treatment. They have been gradually applied in chemical materials, energy preparation, pollution control and other fields and have achieved impressive development. Good understanding of the potential and challenges of utilizing nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications is key for both academic and industrial uses.This book will summarize existing research knowledge and help advanced students, researchers, and industrial technicians to understand the current development status and specific applications of nanomaterials to energy and the environment, providing an important reference for students to choose and understand research direction in this field. The book is divided into three main parts, with a strong foundational focus on the physicochemical basis of nanomaterials for these applications: the basic theory and physicochemical basis of nanomaterials introduction to their energy and environment applications examination of the typical cases and progress of nanomaterials.

Nanostructured Materials: Physicochemical Chemistry Fundamentals for Energy and Environmental Applications will appeal to researchers from a wide range of communities including the chemical sciences (inorganic and physical chemistry, coordination chemistry, molecular dynamics, electrochemistry, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis, thermodynamics, etc.), nanoscience (graphene, carbon nanotubes, nanocrystals, nano catalysis, energy, and environment-nano science), as well as materials science (material physics and chemistry, material chemistry, nano materials).
