This book summarizes the fundamentals of nanochemistry and nanotechnology. Nanotechnology deals with materials or structures in nanometer scales, typically ranging from 1-100 nm. Size reduction can lead to a whole range of new physico-chemical properties and thus offer a wealth of potential applications. This book also deals with the various types of polymeric microspheres, preparation methods of microspheres and their trending pharmaceutical applications.
