Nonmetallic nanoparticles and nanomaterials: Size-dependent behavior of mechanical properties is still not clear in the case of polymer nanomaterials however, in one research by Lahouij they found that the compressive moduli of polystyrene nanoparticles were found to be less than that of the bulk counterparts.
Nanochemistry is an emerging sub-discipline of the chemical and material sciences that deals with the development of new methods for creating nanoscale materials. [1] The term "nanochemistry" was first used by Ozin in 1992 as 'the uses of chemical synthesis to reproducibly afford nanomaterials from the atom "up", contrary to the nanoengineering and nanophysics approach that operates from the ...
Exfoliation is a process that separates layered materials into nanomaterials by breaking the bonds between layers using mechanical, chemical, or thermal procedures.. While exfoliation has historical roots dating back centuries, significant advances and widespread research gained momentum after Novoselov and Geim's discovery of graphene using Scotch tape in 2004.
NEMO 3-D [10] – enables multi-million atom electronic structure simulations in empirical tight binding; open source; an educational version is on nanoHUB and Quantum Dot Lab [11] nextnano [12] allows simulating geometry, electronic properties and electrical transport phenomena in various nanostructures using continuum models (commercial software)
Inorganic nanoporous materials are porous materials that include the use of oxide-type, carbon, binary, and pure metal materials. Examples include zeolites, nanoporous alumina, and titania nanotubes. [3] Zeolites are crystalline hydrated tectoaluminosilicates. This material is a combination of alkali/alkali earth metals, alumina, and silica ...
The goals of her lab include, “spanning physics, chemistry, and material science & engineering”. [2] The current research is centered around two-dimensional (2D) layered nanomaterials. Their work incorporates every facet of 2D nanomaterials, including: developing novel synthetic growth methods and new chemical methods/techniques for electro ...

For example, multi-walled carbon nanotubes based polymer nanocomposites have been used for the enhancement of the electrical conductivity. [ 26 ] An alternative route to synthesis of nanocomposites is sequential infiltration synthesis , in which inorganic nanomaterials are grown within polymeric substrates using vapor-phase precursors that ...
