Nanocomposite Copolymeric Membranes and their Characterization

The dynamic development of nanotechnology has been observed especially in the area of materials engineering. Excellent examples are various nanoparticles where the current research is focused on their design fabrication characterization and applications. The properties and specific functions of nanoparticles may be controlled by their shape and size at the nanometer scale. There are several methods that have been put forward for synthesis of these materials namely chemical vapor condensation arc discharge hydrogen plasma-metal reaction and laser pyrolysis in the vapor phase micro-emulsion hydrothermal sol-gel etc. The properties of metal nanoparticles depend largely on their synthesis procedure.
