Carbon Nanomaterials Based on Graphene Nanosheets

<p>Since the discovery of graphene it has become one of the most widely and extensively studied materials. This book aims to summarize the progress in synthesis processing characterization and applications of a special group of nanocarbon materials derived from graphene or graphene related derivatives by using various strategies in different forms. More specifically three forms of macrosized materials are presented i.e. one-dimension or 1D (fibers wires yarns streads etc.) two-dimension or 2D (films membranes papers sheets etc.) and three-dimension or 3D (bulk hydrogels aerogels foams sponges etc.). Seven chapters are included with the first chapter serving to introduce the concept definition and nomenclature of graphene graphene oxide and their derivatives. The main topics are covered in Chapters 2‒7. Although they have coherent connections each chapter of them is designed such that they can be studied independently. </p><p></p><p>The target readers of this book include undergraduate students postgraduate students researchers designers engineers professors and program/project managers from the fields of materials science and engineering applied physics chemical engineering biomaterials materials manufacturing and design institutes and research founding agencies.</p>
