The surface increased to volume ratio and number are increased of atoms that are present near the surface compared with micro-/macrostructures are suggested to contribute to the distinctly different properties of nanomaterials.
Nanomaterial denotes an incidental, natural, or manufactured materials containing particles in an unbound state.[1] Nanomaterials as unique physicochemical properties, such as large surface, ultra small size, and increased chemical reactivity, compared with their bulk counterparts.[2,3] The surface increased to volume ratio and number are increased of atoms that are present near the surface compared with micro-/macrostructures are suggested to contribute to the distinctly different properties of nanomaterials.
