In this book, different applications of nanomaterials are described based on experiments, validations, and prototype manufacturing. It also covers synthesis, characterization, functionalization and coating of nanomaterials in various application-oriented investigations. The use of nanomaterials in energy storage, catalyst preparation and tribology are a few examples of improving the efficiency of future technologies. In addition, this book has also contributed to the nanomanufacturing of composites for automobile industries, glass industries, textiles and flexible electronics. This book provides knowledge on multiple related fields in applying nanomaterials, emphasizing the most updated literature, understanding applications, and consists of examples and illustrations so that readers can absorb the content rapidly.
