Series: Emerging Materials and Technologies

This book covers the application of emerging materials to combat coronavirus. It discusses various physicochemical and biomedical characteristics of 2D materials, such as graphene, MXenes, and their various other derivatives, followed by proposal of how such materials can be used to design and develop several systems capable of fighting infectious diseases like coronavirus. It also covers fundamental and product developments based on MXene and graphene-based materials using emerging 3D printing process and other pertinent aspects.

Features:

Focusses on COVID-19 from cross-disciplinary approach, especially biophysical management of the virus.

Discusses emerging 2D materials such as MXene and graphene to combat coronavirus.

Reviews development of PPEs, sterilizers, foams, antimicrobial surfaces, biosensors from materials science perspective.

Explores pertinent fundamental mechanisms to develop structure–property relationships.

Examines cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of the discussed 2D materials.

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in biotechnology, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, and materials science.

Neeraj Dwivedi is currently a principal scientist at CSIR – Advanced Materials and Processes Research Institute (CSIR-AMPRI), Bhopal, India (since June 2019), and associate professor at AcSIR, India. He completed his PhD from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, India, in 2013 and then moved to National University of Singapore, where he worked for about six years (2013–2019) as a postdoctoral fellow. Dr. Dwivedi works on 2D materials, thin films, and polymer composites for tribology, shape memory, biomedical, electronic, and energy applications. He has published one book chapter, about 95 research papers in highly reputed international journals, many book chapters, and more than 100 research papers; served as a lead guest editor for one of the special issues of Journal of Nanomaterials (2015); and is currently a reviewer of more than 20 international journals. As per Google Scholar, he has a total number of 3,240 citations; h-index 31; and i-10 index 73. Avanish Kumar Srivastava is currently the director of CSIR – Advanced Materials and Processes Research Institute (CSIR-AMPRI), Bhopal, India. Presently, he is also the president of electron microscopy society of India. He completed his PhD from Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in 1996 and then joined the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), India, as a scientist. His current research interest includes characterization of nanomaterials using electron microscopy and exploration of nanomaterials, graphene-based materials, and metal oxides for wide-spectrum applications. Prof. Srivastava has published about 300 research articles in reputed international journals and has been invited for talks in different scientific meetings in India and abroad; 12 patents have been filed/granted into his credit, along with 11 technology/know-how transfers to various private partners. He is a member/fellow of several research and professional societies of India and abroad.
