Electrochemical energy storage devices are the prime interest of researchers and students. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to nanomaterials and their potential applications specifically for electrochemical devices (rechargeable batteries, supercapacitors and so forth) in a coherent and simple manner. It covers fundamental concepts of nanomaterials, chemical and physical methods of synthesis, properties, characterization methods, and related applications.

Features:

• Introduces the evolution of nanoparticles in electrochemical energy storage devices.
• Provides the detailed information on step-by-step synthesis of nanoparticles.
• Discusses different characterization methods (structural, electrical, optical, and thermal).
• Includes the use of nanoparticles in various electrochemical devices.
• Aims to bridge the gap between the material synthesis and the real application.

This book aims at Senior Undergraduate/Graduate students in Material Chemistry, Electrochemistry and Chemical Engineering, and Energy Storage.
