Nanocomposite Science and Technology
The authors supply a close remedy of assorted points of nanocomposites. They describe quite a few fabrication equipment, like a thermal spray method, or mechanical alloying. Plus, unsurprisingly, the right way to use carbon nanotubes as a foundation for composites. one other huge team of equipment revolves round utilizing polymers.

The substitution of these viral vectors by synthetic vectors made of polycationic polymers is an alternative way to protect the nucleic acids and to allow them to reach their therapeutic targets: the cytoplasm for siRNA or the nucleus for DNA. Chitosan is one of the most commonly studied polymers in nonviral gene delivery [106]. Indeed, its positive charges under slightly acidic conditions allow its interaction with nucleic acids such as DNA or siRNA and the condensation of the nucleic acids into nanoparticles.
Park et al. [102] designed an injectable cell delivery chitosan–Pluronic hydrogel for articular cartilage regeneration. The chitosan–Pluronic solution underwent a sol–gel transition at around 25 C. The chitosan–Pluronic hydrogel showed effective chondrocyte proliferation and promoted extracellular matrix expression compared with alginate hydrogel. Tan et al. [101] proposed a new class of biocompatible and biodegradable composite hydrogels derived from water-soluble chitosan and oxidized hyaluronic acid upon mixing, without the addition of a chemical crosslinking agent.
