Dear Colleagues,
Several new methods for preparation of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been developed, allowing good control on morphology and size, but the evolution of functionalization strategies has lagged behind significantly.
In fact, nanomaterials for applications depending on more complex surface chemistry are awaiting the evolution of
this strategic area. Good examples are nanomaterials for biomedical applications, especially for intravenous administration, where an excellent control of the functionalization processes is demanded to tailor the colloidal stability and functional features. This Special Issue is focused on strategies for multi-functionalization in association with the respective NP preparation and application methods, given their key roles in opening new frontiers for realizing breakthrough nanomaterials for biomedical applications.
