Abstract
Nanomaterials have at least one external dimension in the nanometer range with unique properties. Nanomaterials have unique physical and chemical properties at the atomic and molecular levels. So, these materials have a variety of applications in the industrial, medical, commercial, and consumer product fields. There are a wide range of characterization techniques available for analyzing the shape, size, dispersion, chemical composition, crystal structure, surface area, surface chemistry and charge, and the morphology of nanoparticles. This chapter provides a detailed analysis of the various characterization techniques available.
