Magnetic Nanoparticles – Synthesis and Comprehensive Characterization
This is an introductory book that is applicable for teaching and research purposes. It covers all the major aspects of magnetic nanoparticle synthesis in an easy, accessible, and concise way. The initial chapters described the types of magnetic particles and magnetism in nanoparticles with their occurrences and behavior in different conditions. Later chapters describe the classical methods of nanoparticle synthesis, specific characterizations, stability, and finally, broad applications in various technical fields in an exhaustive tabular format for easy and quick access for the readers to the current research scenario, which helps them to identify the research gap and novelty in the research directions.
