The most complex crystal designed and built from nanoparticles has been reported by researchers. The work demonstrates that some of nature’s most complicated structures can be deliberately ...

Polymeric nanoparticles are nanoscale-sized objects constructed from polymers such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polylactide-co-glycolide (PLGA), with applications in the in vitro delivery of ...

How nanotechnology is made So how do nanoparticles, which are 80 to 100 thousand times smaller than the thickness of a human hair, form inside a fire?

They are extremely small, typically at the nanoscale – one-billionth of a meter – in diameter. Because these nanoparticles are made of iron, they’re both magnetic and stable. Their tiny size gives ...

The most common nanoparticles used in these reactions include titanium dioxide (and doped titanium dioxide), zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, and niobium oxide, as well as composite nanoparticles made up ...

For many industrial applications one needs synthesis gas, also known as "syngas," a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and carbon ...

New study shows that hair styling routines can release billions of harmful nanoparticles, posing serious health risks in ...

With the ability to be finely engineered to tackle the disease in different ways, nanoparticles hold huge potential when it comes to cancer treatment. Researchers at the Tokyo University of ...

Sep 07, 2023 Nanoparticles will change the world, but whether it's for the better depends on decisions made now (Nanowerk News) Technologies based on nanoscale materials – for example, particles that ...

The trouble with many drugs is that they go where they shouldn't, producing unwanted side effects. Psychiatric drugs might ...

Using artificial intelligence, MIT researchers have come up with a new way to design nanoparticles that can more efficiently ...
