Several factors can influence the mechanical durability of nanomaterials and nanodevices:
1. Material Composition: The intrinsic properties of the material, such as its elastic modulus, toughness, and hardness, play a significant role. 2. Nanostructure: The arrangement and size of nanostructures, such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanotubes, can impact mechanical properties. 3. Fabrication Method: Techniques used to synthesize and assemble nanomaterials can introduce defects or residual stresses that affect durability. 4. Environmental Conditions: Exposure to harsh environments, including high temperatures, humidity, and corrosive chemicals, can degrade mechanical properties over time. 5. Mechanical Loading: The type and magnitude of mechanical forces applied during operation can cause wear and tear.
