However, a lack of understanding about the properties and chemical composition of small particles limits our ability to predict, and control their applications and impacts. Challenges in Characterizing Small Particles: Exploring Particles from the Nano- to Microscales summarizes presentations and discussions at a 2010 National Academies roundtable. Speakers at this roundtable discussed the crucial types of information that need to be determined about small particles in different media. They also explored the critical importance of small particles in environmental science, materials and chemical sciences, biological science, and engineering, and the many challenges involved in characterizing materials at the nano- and microscales. The discussions on characterization included static, dynamic, experimental, computational, and theoretical characterization. The workshop also included several "research tool" presentations that highlighted new advances in characterizing small particles. 606 $aNanoparticles$xResearch 615 0$aNanoparticles$xResearch. 701 $aMasciangioli$b Tina$01804530 701 $aAlper$b Joe$01103652 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bChemical Sciences Roundtable. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Chemical Sciences and Technology. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bDivision on Earth and Life Studies. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958636603321 996 $aChallenges in characterizing small particles$94352605 997 $aUNINA
