Nanofibers : Synthesis, Properties and Applications

Abstract

Nanofibers are well known for their vast range of applications in sensors, catalysts, conductors, tissue engineering, and so on, owing to their high surface-area-to-volume ratio, high porosity, and the ease of tuning their structures, functionalities, and properties This book is a comprehensive overview of the synthesis, characterization, and application of nanofibers. Written by experts in the field, chapters cover such topics as green synthesis of nanofibers, electros­pinning of carbon nanofibers, applications of ceramic nanofibers, transparent electrodes for flexible and stretchable electronics, nanoribbons, and much more.
