摘要

Researchers are more interested in nanomaterials because of their special or novel physical and chemical properties unlike the larger materials. These exceptional qualities have enabled numerous cutting-edge applications in electronics, the food industry, chemical catalysis, medicine and pharmaceuticals, and agriculture. Nanoparticles are commonly synthesized using physical, chemical and biological methods. Physical and chemical methods are sometimes costly, energy-intensive, and potentially hazardous. Biological methods use plants or microorganisms, offering an environmentally sustainable alternate to other popular methods. Nanotechnologists must comprehend and be proficient in the intricate methods required to accurately characterize these processes to employ this multidisciplinary approach to nanoparticle manufacturing. Various types of nanoparticles, their synthesis, and characterization processes are discussed in this chapter.
