Nano Design to Smart Gels

Nano Design to Smart Gels addresses the formation and application of technological gels and how nanostructural prospects are fundamental to gelling. Topics focus on the classification of gels based on small molecules and polymer gellers, biogels, stimulation conditions, topological, thermodynamic and kinetic aspects and characterization techniques. The book outlines structure and characterization concepts in order to provide pragmatic tools for the design and tailoring of new functional gel architectures. It provides an important source for readers and researchers who are currently or may soon be in research with gels, presenting an overview of fundamental topics. Highlights the building-blocks that make up the main functional groups that result in gelator compoundsProvides an accessible source to the most common responses of gels, classified in their functional groupsOutlines major characterization techniques, showing how they can be combined INDICE: 1.
