Nanotechnology in Construction [electronic resource] : Proceedings of NICOM5 /
Sobolev, Konstantin.editor.
Shah, Surendra P.editor.
Nanotechnology has already demonstrated surprising potential for improving the performance of construction materials, and many of these recent developments were facilitated by NICOM symposia. The NICOM5 proceedings will cover the emerging opportunities and future use of nanotechnology in construction, and will illustrate the broad potential for application of nanotechnology to challenging problems involving materials and infrastructure.
Description based upon print version of record.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
From the Contents: Production, functionalization and performance of nanomaterials: nanoparticles, nanotubes and novel polymers -- Investigation of the internal structure and properties of construction materials at the nanoscale and relation of these parameters to materials performance at the macroscale -- Instrumentation, techniques, and metrology for nanoscale investigation of construction materials.
