Book excerpt: Recently, the polymeric materials have extensive uses because of their amazing combination of properties, durability, light weight and simplicity of processing. However, these materials face some problems like their weak thermal stability and also poor mechanical stability. Therefore, a large number of additives especially metal nanoparticles were added to polymeric matrix to overcome these problems and designed polymer matrix nanocomposite. A composite is defined as the combination between two individuals or more than one material by physical or mechanical method to get a new material with unique and elegant structure and properties and carrying the feature of the two separated materials and distinguishable interface. Many approaches are used to prepare the polymer nanocomposites such as ex situ, in situ and radiolytic methods. The nanocomposites have important features such as excellent mechanical properties like high stiffness, strength, toughness; good chemical properties like corrosion resistance; and high physical properties like high optical, mechanical, thermal, low density and specific antibacterial properties. The nanocomposite materials with these higher properties have a wonderful and different range of functional applications. The deep view on the synthesis strategies and physical properties of the polymer/noble metal nanocomposites is offered in this book and also their applications in many fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To have unimaginably outstanding useful properties (physical, mechanical, electrical, optical, chemical, and magnetic) in a single material design is a highly challenging task in the material science community, which can be achieved through nanocomposites. These nanocomposites can be produced from all conventional materials, which include polymers, metals/alloys, and ceramics, by modifying their internal structures. Due to modification of the structures of all kinds of conventional materials, at either the nano or ultra-fine level, the materials exhibit superior performance, which is a boon for all fields of science. In general, nanocomposite materials can be manufactured by solid-state processing techniques, liquid metallurgy, ex-situ and in-situ powder metallurgy, and other basic science synthesis routes. Furthermore, the possibility of making environmentally friendly materials is also possible with nanotechnology. Therefore, to investigate and demonstrate developments in the field of nanocomposites, this book is targeted at all the scientific personnel working in this field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanostructures for Antimicrobial Therapy discusses the pros and cons of the use of nanostructured materials in the prevention and eradication of infections, highlighting the efficient microbicidal effect of nanoparticles against antibiotic-resistant pathogens and biofilms. Conventional antibiotics are becoming ineffective towards microorganisms due to their widespread and often inappropriate use. As a result, the development of antibiotic resistance in microorganisms is increasingly being reported. New approaches are needed to confront the rising issues related to infectious diseases. The merging of biomaterials, such as chitosan, carrageenan, gelatin, poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) with nanotechnology provides a promising platform for antimicrobial therapy as it provides a controlled way to target cells and induce the desired response without the adverse effects common to many traditional treatments. Nanoparticles represent one of the most promising therapeutic treatments to the problem caused by infectious micro-organisms resistant to traditional therapies. This volume discusses this promise in detail, and also discusses what challenges the greater use of nanoparticles might pose to medical professionals. The unique physiochemical properties of nanoparticles, combined with their growth inhibitory capacity against microbes has led to the upsurge in the research on nanoparticles as antimicrobials. The importance of bactericidal nanobiomaterials study will likely increase as development of resistant strains of bacteria against most potent antibiotics continues. Shows how nanoantibiotics can be used to more effectively treat disease Discusses the advantages and issues of a variety of different nanoantibiotics, enabling medics to select which best meets their needs Provides a cogent summary of recent developments in this field, allowing readers to quickly familiarize themselves with this topic area
