Fundamentals of Bionanomaterials covers the fundamental aspects, experimental setup, synthesis, properties, and characterization of different types of bionanomaterials. Sections cover the different structure and unique properties of bionanomaterials that can be obtained by modifying their morphology and composition, highlighting a wide range of fabrication techniques and critical processing parameters. Bionanomaterials have drawn much attention for their use in a range of industrial applications, including scaffolds, dental implants, drug delivery, dialysis, biobatteries, biofuel cells, air purification, and more. This is an important reference source for anyone seeking to gain a solid understanding on the characterization, properties and processing of bionanomaterial classes. Bionanomaterials are molecular materials composed partially or completely of biological molecules or key biological structures such as proteins, enzymes, viruses, DNA, biopolymers, metals, metal oxides, and carbon nanomaterials with characteristic bioactivity. Hence, the intensive research in this area is moving towards the design and use of bionanomaterials for industrial applications. Explains the major properties and characterization techniques for a range of bionanomaterial classesDiscusses the commercialization of different types of bionanomaterials for a variety of industry sectorsHighlights the challenges and interdisciplinary perspective of bionanomaterials in science, biology, engineering, medicine, and technology, incorporating both fundamentals and applications INDICE: Part I: Fundamentals of Bionanomaterials 1.
