The Classification and Synthesis Methods of Nanomaterials

Abstract

Recently the more interesting and attracting point in research area is the synthesis and characterizations of nanomaterials because of nanotechnology field has contributed to the improvement and revolutionizing of different fields. The list of benefits and applications of nanotechnology is growing rapidly. Nanoparticles (NPs) are small particles that exist in an average size ranges between 1 and 100 nm that distinguish them from their parental bulky materials and make them ideal for diverse applications [1], [2] . Now a day’s nanoscale materials, with unique properties have been widely used in different fields such as energy, engineering, biomedical and environment applications. The NPs have become an area of intensive research in the recent past because of their unique and distinguished properties which make their potential application in various fields biomedicine, catalysis, agriculture, and environment [3], [4]. We go through the various research papers and discuss the synthesis of NPs with different methods by the various authors. There are many techniques and applications are reported in the last five years but here we strictly focused on the general synthetic approaches and applications of the nanomaterials which provide a general idea to the young researchers.
