What Are Some Techniques Used in Nanomaterial Manufacturing?
Several techniques are employed to manufacture nanomaterials, including:
Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): This technique involves depositing a thin film of material onto a substrate through the chemical reaction of vapor-phase precursors. Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD): A process that allows for the deposition of atomic-scale thin films with precise control over thickness and composition. Sol-Gel Process: A wet-chemical technique used to create nanostructured materials by converting a solution into a solid gel phase. Electrospinning: A method used to produce nanofibers from polymer solutions or melts under the influence of a high-voltage electric field. Ball Milling: A mechanical process that uses balls to grind materials into extremely fine powders, useful for creating nanoparticles.
