Abstract

Two-dimensional graphene family nanomaterials (GFNs) are extensively studied by the researchers for their quantum size effect, large surface area, numerous reactive functional sites, and biocompatibility. The hybrid materials of GFNs exhibit an increased level of mechanical strength, optical, electronic, and catalytic activity due to their incorporation. The application of GFNs in the energy, environment, electric and electronic, personal care, and health sectors is abundant, which is not only by their unique physicochemical properties but also by their ease and large production by various synthetic approaches and economically inexpensiveness. Their general biomedical applications include bioimaging, biosensing, drug delivery, tissue engineering, killing the microbes, and demolishing the cancer tumor. The first chapter of this book describes definitions, synthetic methods, unique properties, and biomedical applications of GFNs, including graphene, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide.
