Taking A Brief Glimpse Into Copper Nanoparticles
Copper Nanoparticles | Image Resource : acsmaterial.com
Copper nano particles are attractive in nature because of its heat transfer properties like higher thermal conductivity. They have the higher surface area, low production cost, catalytic activity, magnetic as well as optical properties and catalytic properties.
The major difficulty lies in the preparation as well as preservation since they get easily oxidized on exposing it to air. Copper nanoparticles are the copper based particles ranging from 1-100 nm in size. Unlike, any other form of nanoparticles, the copper based nano particles are formed through natural processed else through chemical synthesis. These nanoparticles of copper have its own particular interest because of its applications like coloring agents and also the modern day biomedical ones.
