What are the Environmental Interactions of Nanoparticles?
When released into the environment, nanoparticles can interact with air, water, and soil. These interactions can influence their mobility, persistence, and potential toxicity. Factors such as the presence of natural organic matter, pH, and ionic strength can affect the fate of nanoparticles in the environment. Understanding these interactions is essential for assessing the environmental impact and safety of nanotechnology.
