What Types of Nanomaterials Utilize Physisorption?
Several types of nanomaterials exhibit significant physisorption properties:
1. Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs): Known for their high surface area, CNTs can adsorb a variety of gases and molecules. 2. Graphene: This single layer of carbon atoms provides an extensive surface area for physisorption. 3. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs): These porous materials are designed to maximize surface area for adsorption. 4. Nanoporous Silica: Used in catalysis and drug delivery due to its high surface area and tunable pore sizes.
