Abstract
We discussed in last few chapters synthesis, characterization and properties of nanomaterials in general. Few examples were given from time to time. In this chapter we shall discuss some nanomaterials like fullerenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes, porous silicon, aerogel, zeolites, self assembled materials and core-shell particles, which form a large section of nanomaterials due to their novel properties.
