Nanostructured Carbon Materials from Plant Extracts: Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications guides the reader through the preparation and utilization of carbon nanomaterials based on various biomass sources, including fruits, vegetables, leaves, pulp and other plant extracts. The book covers the fundamentals of nanostructured carbon materials and synthesis methods from a range of plant sources. Other chapters focus on characterization, analysis, simulation and modeling in order to prepare plant extract based carbon nanomaterials with the required properties. Final sections highlight key application areas, presenting methods and approaches to prepare these materials for specific uses. This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students across nanomaterials, polymer science, composite science, sustainable materials, chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science, as well as industrial scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals with an interest in sustainable carbon nanomaterials.
