How are Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticles Synthesized?
There are several methods for synthesizing silicon dioxide nanoparticles, including:
Stöber Method: A sol-gel process that involves the hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in an alcoholic medium. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): A process where gaseous reactants form a solid material on a substrate. Flame Synthesis: A method where silicon-containing precursors are combusted to produce silicon dioxide nanoparticles.
