Handlich, trotzdem umfassend und für die Fachkommunikation einfach unentbehrlich: Dieses Nachschlagewerk (für diese Neuausgabe überarbeitet und stark erweitert) bietet Ihnen ein Begriffsverzeichnis zum Gesamtgebiet der Nanotechnologie und Kolloidforschung, verschiedene Tabellen zur Klassifikation von Kolloiden und Nanomaterialien sowie thematisch fokussierte Glossare für einzelne Phänomene, Eigenschaften und Methoden. Hier finden Sie nicht nur ganz neue, sondern auch veraltete Begriffe mit Hinweisen auf die Neudefinition, außerdem viele Akronyme, Synonyme, Abkürzungen, Eigennamen, biographische Angaben, Symbole und Einheiten. Ein ausführliches Literaturverzeichnis erleichtert den Zugang zu weiterführenden Informationen.
