Abstract

Soft nanomaterials have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their unique mechanical and chemical properties. This chapter provides an overview of the synthesis, characterization, and applications of soft nanomaterials, including hydrogels, liposomes, and self-assembled macro-molecules. We begin by discussing the properties and synthesis methods of these materials, such as solution mixing, emulsification, and self-assembly. The chapter also explores the various applications of soft nanomaterials, including in drug delivery, tissue engineering, biosensors, and personal care products. Finally, the chapter concludes with a summary of the current state of research and suggests possible directions for future work in this exciting field.
