Q & A
What is the benchmark size for a material to be classified as a nanomaterial?
-A material is classified as a nanomaterial if at least one of its dimensions is between 1 to 100 nanometers.
How can nanomaterials be categorized based on their origin?
-Nanomaterials can be categorized as natural or synthetic based on their origin. Natural nanomaterials are produced by biological species or anthropogenic activities, while synthetic nanomaterials are man-made and can be divided into engineered and incidental types.
What are incidental nanomaterials?
-Incidental nanomaterials are those that are not intentionally produced, but are created as a byproduct of other processes such as mechanical grinding or engine exhaust.
How do engineered nanomaterials differ from incidental nanomaterials?
-Engineered nanomaterials are purposefully fabricated with specific applications in mind, whereas incidental nanomaterials are unintentionally produced during other processes without a specific use in mind.
What is the difference between organic and inorganic nanomaterials?
-Organic nanomaterials are primarily made from organic matter, utilizing non-covalent interactions between molecules to form structures. Inorganic nanomaterials include metal nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, and nanostructured materials synthesized from inorganic substances like silicon and titanium.
What types of structures can organic-based nanomaterials form?
-Organic-based nanomaterials can form structures such as dendrimers, micelles, and polymer nanoparticles.
Give an example of an inorganic nanomaterial and its potential application.
-An example of an inorganic nanomaterial is titanium oxide nanoparticles, which can be used in applications like solar cells, self-cleaning surfaces, and photocatalysis.
How can nanomaterials be classified based on their dimensions?
-Nanomaterials can be classified into structures like zero-dimensional (0D), one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) based on the number of dimensions at the nanoscale.
What is the significance of the dimensional classification of nanomaterials?
-The dimensional classification of nanomaterials is significant as it affects their properties and potential applications. Different dimensional structures offer unique characteristics that can be exploited in various fields.
What are some hot topic research areas around nanomaterials?
-Hot topic research areas around nanomaterials include their application in medicine, energy storage, environmental remediation, electronics, and the development of new synthesis techniques for creating nanostructures with desired properties.

hi there welcome back fellows I'm very
happy to have you here at the beginning
of the section 3 in this part of the
course I brought you to nanomaterials so
far I have talked about nanoparticles
the concept of the nanos ooh and we
learned about what's special about
nanotechnology but simply speaking we
have not yet discussed about the animals
of nanotechnology zoo because after all
we are talking about a variety of nano
species and they are classified based on
a variety of factors that's what this
section is about I'll talk about
different types and families of
nanomaterials there are structures
features and application and hot topic
research around them I'm allowed your
instructor from right with an Academy
bare with me
[Music]
first thing first can be proposed a
definition for nanomaterials kind of
benchmark to recognize whether a very
very tiny object is classified as a nano
material or not the answer is yes we
almost have that benchmark after all we
said nano material is about the size
between 1 to 100 nanometer nanometers
and for any object that would be
imagined we can consider three
dimensions right so as a definition we
can say if at least one dimension of a
material stands at the nanoscale between
1 to 100 nanometers then that material
is counted as a nanomaterials simple
enough the fact is under such definition
we are dealing with a broad range of
things the species of the nano Xu's that
we already talked about and if someone
wants to categorize these nanomaterials
they can come up with different
classification actually depending on how
we want to look at them let's look at
some of them more noun classifications
of nanomaterials classification of
nanomaterials based on their origin
nanomaterials can come from the nature
and they also could be man-made I
briefly hit this one in the section 1 if
you remember nanomaterials can also be
classified as the natural or synthetic
based on their origin natural
nanomaterials are produced in the nature
either by biological species or through
anthropogenic activities on the other
hand man-made nanomaterials could be so
divided into engineered and incidental
ones incidental nanomaterials are
produced in not purpose-to mechanical
grinding or exhaust of the engines for
example the engineered nanomaterials are
fabricated with purpose and these are
the materials we mostly focus in this
section another classification of
nanomaterials could be based on the fact
are they organic or inorganic material
like organic based nanomaterials are
made mostly from organic
matter the week non-covalent interaction
between organic molecules could be
utilized to transform to the organic
nanomaterials into desired structures
such as the dreamers micelles and
polymers nano particles and etc in
organic based nanomaterials
include metal metal oxide nanoparticles
and nano structure materials and these
nanomaterials can be synthesized into
metals such as gold or silver
nanoparticles and metal oxides such as
titanium oxides zinc oxide nanoparticles
and semiconductors such as silicon and
ceramics nanomaterials also can be
classified based on their dimension and
this one leads to the introduction of
the nano structures this is the most
beneficial classification of
nanomaterials and I'll talk about this
one
