Overview of Nano Zinc Oxide

2017-01-03

Zinc oxide nanoparticles are a new type of high-function, high-value-added fine inorganic chemical product for the 21st century. Its particle size is between 1 and 100 nanometers, also known as ultrafine zinc oxide. Due to the miniaturization of the grains, its surface electronic structure and crystal structure change, producing surface effects, volume effects, quantum size effects, and macroscopic tunneling effects, as well as high transparency and high dispersibility, which are not possessed by macroscopic objects. In recent years, it has been found to exhibit many special functions in catalysis, optics, magnetism, and mechanics, making it have important application value in many fields such as ceramics, chemical industry, electronics, optics, biology, and medicine.

Due to the excellent properties and very attractive application prospects of zinc oxide nanoparticles, the research and development of zinc oxide nanoparticles has become a focus of attention for many scientific and technological personnel.
