Nanopinion: Nanoscale KISS method – a novel approach for 2D materials production
Read the latest Nanopinion by Dr Antonija Grubišić-Čabo and Dr Maciej Dendzik. They introduce the new Kinetic In situ Single-layer Synthesis (KISS) method which produces larger 2D materials in a simple and clean way and elaborate on its potential for the future applications.
Nanomaterials and health
Are substances in nanoforms more dangerous than they are in their normal size? Some are and some are not. Just like any other chemical substance, nanomaterials have to be assessed separately.
Nanomaterials are not only used in consumer products, but also in new and innovative medical treatments. Research has shown that nanoparticles can be used to damage and even destroy cancer cells from within.
