It describes several kinds of nanostructured fibers such as metal oxides, natural polymers, synthetic polymers and hybrid inorganic-polymers or carbon-based materials. The first part of the Handbook covers the fundamental aspects, experimental setup, synthesis, properties and physico-chemical characterization of nanofibers. Specifically, this part details the history of nanofibers, different techniques to design nanofibers, self-assembly in nanofibers, critical parameters of synthesis, fiber alignment, modeling and simulation, types and classifications of nanofibers, and signature physical and chemical properties (i.e. mechanical, electrical, optical and magnetic), toxicity and regulations, bulk and surface functionalization and other treatments to allow them to a practical use. Characterization methods are also deeply discussed here. The second part of the Handbook deals with global markets and technologies and emerging applications of nanofibers, such as in energy production and storage, aerospace, automotive, sensors, smart textile design, energy conversion, tissue engineering, medical implants, pharmacy and cosmetics. Attention is given to the future of research in these areas in order to improve and spread the applications of nanofibers and their commercialization. 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aMicrotechnology 606 $aMicroelectromechanical systems 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanochemistry 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aMicrosystems and MEMS 606 $aNanophysics 606 $aNanochemistry 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aMicrotechnology. 615 0$aMicroelectromechanical systems. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanochemistry. 615 14$aNanotechnology. 615 24$aMicrosystems and MEMS. 615 24$aNanophysics. 615 24$aNanochemistry. 676 $a620.5 702 $aBarhoum$b Ahmed$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBechelany$b Mikhael$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMakhlouf$b Abdel Salam Hamdy$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337937103321 996 $aHandbook of Nanofibers$91571077 997 $aUNINA
