Materials Science to Combat COVID-19
About this book
This book covers the application of emerging materials to combat coronavirus. It discusses various physicochemical and biomedical characteristics of 2D materials, such as graphene, MXenes, and their various other derivatives, followed by proposal of how such materials can be used to design and develop several systems capable of fighting infectious diseases like coronavirus. It also covers fundamental and product developments based on MXene and graphene-based materials using emerging 3D printing process and other pertinent aspects.
Features:
- Focusses on COVID-19 from cross-disciplinary approach, especially biophysical management of the virus.
- Discusses emerging 2D materials such as MXene and graphene to combat coronavirus.
- Reviews development of PPEs, sterilizers, foams, antimicrobial surfaces, biosensors from materials science perspective.
- Explores pertinent fundamental mechanisms to develop structureāproperty relationships.
- Examines cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of the discussed 2D materials.
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in biotechnology, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, and materials science.
