This book compiles articles from the Journal of Characterization and Development of Novel Materials. Topics discussed include the perspectives of polymer nanocomposites applications as engineering materials; polymeric nanocomposites based on the organomodified layered silicates; structural analysis of nanocomposites polymer/organoclay microhardness and kinetics and mechanism of emulsion copolymerization of methyl acrylate with hydrophilic monomers.

This new book presents and discusses current research in the study of the characterization and development of novel materials. Topics discussed include the development of probabilistic simulation model for production optimization in open pit mines; lead removal from aqueous streams by a novel bioadsorbent; characterization of clinical bacteria and their control by a medicinal plant; preparation of stronium hexaferrite magnets from celestite and blue dust by mechanochemical route and the investigation of the properties of a borosilicate glass from recycled manganese crust tailings.
