What Are the Challenges in Thermal Annealing of Nanomaterials?
Despite its benefits, thermal annealing also presents some challenges:
Temperature Control: Precise temperature control is crucial, as nanomaterials can be sensitive to temperature variations. Atmosphere Control: The annealing atmosphere needs to be controlled to prevent oxidation or other unwanted reactions. Uniform Heating: Ensuring uniform heating across the material to avoid uneven properties. Material-Specific Protocols: Different nanomaterials require specific annealing protocols, making the process complex.
