A variety of solvents are used for cleaning nanomaterials, each chosen based on the specific type of contaminant and the material being cleaned. Common solvents include:
- Acetone: Effective for removing organic residues. - Ethanol: Commonly used for general cleaning. - Isopropanol (IPA): Useful for removing both organic and inorganic contaminants. - Hexane: Employed for removing non-polar organic substances. - Deionized Water (DI): Used for rinsing and removing ionic contaminants.
