Properties of Nano-scale Material

Anshita Yadav

Abstract


Nanomaterials (NMs) have gained prominence in technological advancements due to their tunable physical, chemical and biological properties with enhanced performance over their bulk counterparts. Nanomaterials can be divided based on their shape, size and their origin. Properties of nanomaterials play a major role in the production and maintenance of these materials.Because of expanded development of production of NMs and their role in industrial applications, their issues related to their toxicity are inevitable. Additionally, the types of toxic responses related with NPs and NMs can harm the life around, and the guidelines implemented by various nations to reduce the related risks. In this, we will be discussing about the properties of nanomaterials and also about the cellulose type Nanomaterials. Functional nanomaterials are especially an attractive topic because they enable the creation of materials with new or improved properties by mixing multiple constituents and exploiting synergistic effects, such as electronic, optical, magnetic, catalytic properties or bioactivity, selective permeation, adsorption, etc. In this paper we will be discussing about the different properties of nanomaterials and their risks related.
