Abstract
This chapter explains how to prepare stable nanomaterial dispersion samples and the characterization techniques. The explanation is focused on practical techniques rather than scientific studies. Several technical terms and definitions are explained and effective lab apparatuses are introduced for the better understanding. First, a standard sample preparation method with the typical experimental conditions is described and several actual nanomaterial examples (TiO2, NiO, SiO2, CeO2, and ZnO) are introduced.
