Note: Nanomaterials are chemicals or materials that are produced and used on a very small scale. Nanomaterials have been developed to demonstrate new properties compared to the same material without nanotechnology, such as increased strength, chemical reaction, or conductivity.

Material with any external dimensions in the nanoscale (approximately the size range of 1 to 100 nm) or having internal structure or surface structure at the nanoscale  to  model catalytic reactions on nanoparticles conductive material  define. "Nanomaterials" means a natural, accidental or manufactured substance containing particles, in an infinite state, either as a sum or as an agglomerate, and where for 50% or more of the particles in the number size distribution, one or more external dimensions in The size range is 1 nm - 100 in special cases and in cases where the size distribution threshold may be replaced by a threshold between nanoparticles. Based on the above, fullerenes, graphene fragments and single-walled carbon nanotubes with one Or a few external dimensions of less than 1 nanometer should be considered as nanomaterials.Nanomaterials that react naturally. Or they are produced as a by-product of (unintentional) combustion of combustion processes. They are usually physically and chemically heterogeneous and are often called porous particles. "  On the other hand, multi-structured nanomaterials with physical and electronic purposes are produced and designed for a specific purpose or function.

An example of this process is that nanoparticles are made to help nanoparticles  Carbon nanotubes are also made to be used in a process for nanotubes to create bacterial sensors. Nanotubes are used as composites to bend in response to the use of electrical voltage.   Elsewhere, nanoelectronics such as (nano-wires) also use nano-materials - in this case, nano-wires. Applications for the use of nanowires - zinc oxide nanowires - are used in flexible solar cells as well as nanoparticles.

Conclusion:

The properties of nanomaterials, especially their size, offer different advantages compared to the bulk form of materials, and their adaptability in terms of capability of  the catalytic reaction model in nanoparticles of  their conductive materials highlights their usefulness for specific needs. An additional advantage is their high porosity, which increases the demand for their use in many nanotechnology and electronics industries.
