23.1 Introduction
Nanotechnology and emerging nanomaterials (ENMs) are rapidly developing an intriguing area of research, globally. Nanoparticles or ENMs have a size less than 100 nm and might be zero-dimensional (0D), one- (1D), two- (2D), or three-dimensional (3D) [1–3]. These engineering nanoparticles (ENPs) are being spotlighted as a major concern for rapidly growing industries. ENMs are generated by the fabrication of matter ...
