Nanotechnology in Paper and Wood Engineering: Fundamentals, Challenges and Applications

Nanotechnology in Paper and Wood Engineering describes recent advances made in the use of nanotechnology in the paper and pulp industry. Various types of nano-additives commonly used in the paper industry for modification of raw material to enhance final products yield will be included in Part I of the book. Part II covers the imaging applications of nano-papers and nano-woods in pharmaceuticals, biocatalysis, photocatalysis, and energy storage.

This book is an important reference source for materials scientists and engineers who are looking to understand how nanotechnology is being used to create more efficient manufacturing processes in for the paper and wood industries.
