Technologies
2. Nanotechnology (AIP-Press) Gregory L. Timp
3. Unleashing the Potentials of Nanotechnology Torres Clivia M Sotomayor
b. Chemical methods:
Chemical properties get change according to the
chemical route.
3. By medium of synthesis
(i) Gas phase synthesis
(ii) Liquid phase synthesis
(iii)Solid phase synthesis
(i) Gas phase synthesis
Nanoparticles are formed as a result of
reactions among gaseous molecules, gas
molecule condensation or decomposition.
(ii) Liquid phase synthesis:
Routes:
a. Chemical precipitation
b. Hydrothermal synthesis (Thermal hydrolysis)
c. Sol-gel synthesis
d. Microemulsion synthesis or synthesis in reverse
micelles
a. Chemical precipitation
Fast chemical reaction is required to obtain a
high degree of super-saturation of the product
to favor homogeneous nucleation.

i) Mechanical Milling:
Mechanical forces, involved in high energy ball milling,
are used to break bulk material down to bring it to nano-
level.
