Spinel Nanoferrites: Physicochemical and Biological Applications follows a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to spinel nanoferrites and their cutting-edge applications across energy, environment, and biomedicine, offering a roadmap to the development of future nano system-based tools. Sections cover structure, properties, classification, characterization techniques, and processing methods. Subsequent chapters guide the reader through various key energy and environmental applications of spinel nanoferrites, including electronics, devices, sensors, wastewater treatment, and catalysts. Magnetic and tailorable properties of nanoferrites are also examined, as is the role of spinel nanoferrites in novel therapeutic applications. Finally, current outlook and future opportunities for these novel nanostructures are considered. This is a valuable resource for all those with an interest in nanoferrites and novel nanomaterials, including researchers and advanced students across nanotechnology, biomedicine, pharmaceutical science, chemistry, materials science, and environmental science, and industrial scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals.
