Smaller particles have a higher surface area-to-volume ratio, enhancing their reactivity, adsorption capacity, and overall performance in applications like catalysis or sensors.

FSP enables rapid, scalable production of high-purity nanoparticles with controlled size, composition, and morphology, making it ideal for both research and industrial applications.

Core-shell nanoparticles consist of a distinct core material coated by a shell, offering multifunctional properties. Alloyed nanoparticles have a homogeneous mix of two or more metals within a single particle structure.

Doping introduces foreign atoms into a nanoparticle's structure, modifying its electronic, optical, or catalytic properties for enhanced performance in specific applications.

Hydrophilic nanoparticles interact well with water, improving dispersibility in aqueous systems, while hydrophobic nanoparticles repel water, favoring applications in organic or nonpolar environments.

Agglomeration refers to weak physical bonding between particles, which can often be reversed. Aggregation involves stronger, irreversible bonds that impact dispersibility and functional performance.
