Nanomaterials have, by definition, one or more dimension in the nanometer scale (≤ 100
nm) range and subsequently show novel properties from their bulk materials. The synthesis …

Amphiphilic block copolymers (ABCs) are important in interface and particle stabilization.
Following consideration of the various methods of synthesis of ABCs, mesophases and …

Synthesis of nanoparticles in microemulsions is an area of considerable current interest.
This subject can be broadly divided into two sections defined by the nature of the host …

Reverse micelles are used to synthesize in situ nanometallic copper particles. In mixed
reverse micelles with hydrazine as a reducing agent, metallic copper particles are formed. At …

In this review, we describe four approaches to the materials synthesis of organized inorganic
matter. These include the use of self-assembled organic templates (transcriptive synthesis) …

In this review, the recent achievements in the synthesis of inorganic nanomaterials inside
the spatially confined volume of individual micro‐and submicroreactors (emulsions …

Various methods for the synthesis of copper nanoparticles employing chemical, physical
and biological techniques considering bottom-up and top-down methods synthesis have …

Reverse microemulsions, consisting of heptane, nonionic surfactants, and aqueous salt
solutions, were used to synthesize BiOX (X= Cl, Br, I) nanoparticles. The reverse micelles act …

Crystalline inorganic solids can be divided electronically into three well-known classes:
metals, semiconductors, and insulators. In these extended solids, atomic orbitals overlap to …
