This first book to take a detailed look at one of the key focal points where nanotechnology
and polymers meet provides both an introductory view for beginners as well as in-depth knowledge
for specialists in the various research areas involved. It investigates all types of application for block
copolymers: as tools for fabricating other nanomaterials, as structural components in hybrid materials and
nanocomposites, and as functional materials. The multidisciplinary approach covers all stages from chemical
synthesis and characterization, presenting applications from physics and chemistry to biology and medicine,
such as micro- and nanolithography, membranes, optical labeling, drug delivery,
as well as sensory and analytical uses.
