Knovel Launches Nanotechnology Collection

Knovel, an online resource that helps engineers find reliable technical information faster, announces availability of the Nanotechnology collection featuring content from leading publishers including Elsevier, McGraw-Hill, Springer, Smithers Rapra, Royal Society of Chemistry, World Scientific and Wiley. This new collection focuses on nanoscale materials, nanostructure-dependent properties and phenomena data as well as fabrication and manufacturing techniques.

Research predicts there will be $3 trillion worth of nanotechnology products in 2015. To invest appropriately and for research and development, companies need reliable information on the best practices of applications, fabrications, manufacturing and safety. Demand is particularly strong in the semiconductor, chemical and energy industries where the technology is advancing rapidly.

Engineers working with nanoscale materials, for example, will find technical information on processing techniques, quick tips for materials handling and recommendations for managing defects, impurities.

Subtopics within the Nanotechnology collection include:

•         Nanostructures and Micro/Nanodevices

•         Micro/Nanofabrication and Manufacturing Techniques

•         Nanobiotechnology

•         Environmental Nanotechnology and Environmental Safety

•         Nanocomposites
