The journal publishes theoretical and experimental research articles and studies about synthesis and use of nanomaterials. [1] It was founded in 2010. The journal is published by MDPI, as of 2022 editor in chief is Shirley Chiang, an American microscopist from University of California, Davis, the Department of Physics and Astronomy. [2]
Nanomaterials research takes a materials science-based approach to nanotechnology, leveraging advances in materials metrology and synthesis which have been developed in support of microfabrication research. Materials with structure at the nanoscale often have unique optical, electronic, thermo-physical or mechanical properties. [2] [3] [4]
Research concerning the handling of nanomaterials is underway, and guidance for some nanomaterials has been developed. [ 3 ] : 1–3 As with any new technology, the earliest exposures are expected to occur among workers conducting research in laboratories and pilot plants, making it important that they work in a manner that is protective of ...
Nanoinformatics is the application of informatics to nanotechnology.It is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding nanomaterials, their properties, and their interactions with biological entities, and using that information more efficiently.
The Journal of Materials Research and Technology is a quarterly peer-reviewed open access scientific journal covering metallurgy and materials and minerals research and technology. It is published by Elsevier on behalf of the Brazilian Metallurgical, Materials and Mining Association .
Nanotoxicology is the study of the toxicity of nanomaterials. [1] Because of quantum size effects and large surface area to volume ratio, nanomaterials have unique properties compared with their larger counterparts that affect their toxicity.
Nanochemistry is an emerging sub-discipline of the chemical and material sciences that deals with the development of new methods for creating nanoscale materials. [1] The term "nanochemistry" was first used by Ozin in 1992 as 'the uses of chemical synthesis to reproducibly afford nanomaterials from the atom "up", contrary to the nanoengineering and nanophysics approach that operates from the ...
The International Council on Nanotechnology maintains a database and Virtual Journal of scientific papers on environmental, health and safety research on nanoparticles. [4] The database currently has over 2000 entries indexed by particle type, exposure pathway and other criteria.
