Nanoparticles | Nanoparticle Applications
A nanoparticle is incredibly small, having one dimension that measures 100 nanometers or less, it would take eight hundred 100 nanometer particles side by side to match the width of a human hair. The properties of many conventional materials change when formed from nanoparticles. This is typically because nanoparticles have a greater surface area per weight than larger particles which causes ...
