Polymer/Fullerene Nanocomposites: Design and Applications synopsizes state-of-the-art essentials and versatile inventions in polymers and fullerenes derived nanocomposites. As the design, fabrication and exploration of polymeric materials with fullerenes in advanced nanomaterials is progressing quickly because of their unique combination of properties, including optical, electronic, electrical, mechanical, thermal, photovoltaic, sensing, shape memory, capacitive, antimicrobial, and other applications, this book fills a void in literature compilation and assessment for a field still in its infancy. The introductory chapter of this manuscript provides a comprehensive update on the fundamentals and applications of fullerenes, with following chapters revealing the properties and essential aspects of polymeric nanocomposites. - Reconnoiters state-of-the-art of fullerenes - Focuses on fullerene nano-additives, developing covalent interactions, and physical dispersion with conjugated polymers and other polymeric matrices - Emphasizes fullerene nanowhisker and nanoball nanofillers in nanocomposites - Unfolds advanced applications of polymer/fullerene nanomaterials in stimuli-responsive systems, optoelectronic devices (photovoltaics, light emitting diodes and optical sensors), fuel cells, supercapacitors and biomedical fields

All-carbon composites are carbon materials reinforced with other carbon materials, typically nanostructures such as carbon nanofibers or nanotubes. There are a large number of all-carbon materials, many of which demonstrate unique and useful sets of properties. Combining and hybridising different carbon materials and nanomaterials together also opens up a number of possibilities to fine-tune the materials for desirable combinations of these properties. All-carbon Composites and Hybrids provides a broad overview of these materials including discussions of synthesis, characterisation and the applications of a wide variety of all-carbon composite materials. This will be a useful volume for any researchers interested in carbon and nanotechnology.

Graphene as a nanomaterial has a unique place among existing high performance materials. Being a member of the carbon family, the expectation from this material is high. Several thousand research papers have already explored the possible applications of graphene; however, its commercial application has yet to be realised. Such a large volume of research publications have appeared on graphene that the basic important information is hard to excavate. In order to collect vital information on graphene, this book is compiled in two volumes. Volume 1 is specifically meant for beginners who want to understand the science and technology associated with the nanomaterial. The first objective of this book is to furnish detailed information on the manufacturing or syntheses of graphene and related materials in the lab without the need for special equipment. The chapters are written systematically so that it is easy to understand the science, engineering and technology behind the material. The second objective is to deliver information on the different techniques used to characterise graphene and related materials. The content of the book is carefully designed so that readers can easily understand the new technologies being used to investigate graphene. The book is written for a large readership, including scholars and researchers from diverse backgrounds such as chemistry, physics, materials science and engineering. It can be used as a textbook for both undergraduate and graduate students, and also as a review or reference book by researchers in the fields of materials science, engineering and nanotechnology.
