Due to their distinctive characteristics, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) have garnered more and more attention from the scientific community in both academia and industry in recent years. Smart Halloysite Nanotubes: Fundamentals and Applications takes its readers on a journey that starts with an understanding of fundamentals and leads through the presentation of current research results to the latest developments and possibilities of applied use. Interesting discussions on commercialization strategies for the materials and their environmental viability conclude the 5-part manuscript.

Written by expert authors, the book is an essential reference for students and professional scientists or engineers in equal measure.

Offers up-to-date, state-of-the-art information on smart HNTs, a natural material that is not yet well-known but presents unique and interesting properties
Takes advantage of a structured and comprehensive approach to seamlessly combine theory and practical applications
Includes three case studies that outline recent HNT research results
Conceptualizes future research perspectives and monetizes solutions for scalable HNT-based product manufacturing for a variety of sectors
