Are There Any Challenges Associated with PVP in Nanotechnology?
While PVP offers numerous advantages, there are some challenges to consider:
1. Removal: Post-synthesis, removing PVP from the surface of nanoparticles can be difficult and may require additional purification steps. 2. Environmental Impact: The long-term environmental impact of PVP-stabilized nanoparticles is not fully understood and requires further research. 3. Cost: High-purity PVP can be expensive, potentially increasing the cost of nanoparticle production.
