Nanospheres exhibit unique properties due to their small size and high surface area-to-volume ratio. These properties include:
- Optical Properties: Nanospheres can exhibit unique optical characteristics such as surface plasmon resonance, making them useful in imaging and sensing applications. - Mechanical Strength: Nanospheres often have enhanced mechanical properties, such as increased hardness and strength. - Chemical Reactivity: Due to their high surface area, nanospheres can be highly reactive, which is beneficial for catalysis and chemical reactions. - Magnetic Properties: Magnetic nanospheres are used in data storage, medical imaging, and targeted drug delivery.
