The first book to discuss surface functionalization of nanomaterials, Surface Modification of Nano-Sized Materials for Advanced Applications provides an overview of the current advances in surface modified nano-sized materials, including preparation, synthesis, and applications of these modern day materials. The authors provide materials chemists and scientists, polymer scientists, physical and surface chemists, chemical engineers, and medicinal chemists with a timely overview of surface-modified nanofillers and nano-sized materials in the preparation of composite and hybrid materials. The text also describes the unique properties that nanofillers, nano-sized materials, and composite materials exhibit.
