Beschreibung

This new volume seeks to give a broad overview of the sources, behaviour and risks associated with nanotechnology. Setting the subject into context, the current range of products containing nano-materials are described followed by the consequences for the environment and human health in relation to the introduction of nanoparticles and nano-tubes. An international perspective on how the threats posed by nanoparticles are being addressed is offered along with comprehensive coverage of the current issues concerning engineered nanoparticles. This book will be of immediate value to scientists, engineers and policymakers within the field, as well as to students on advanced courses.
