Abstract

Nanoparticles and nanostructured materials are one of the novel classes of materials that have attracted great attention within the scientific community owing to their unique physical and chemical properties. Wide varieties of naturally occurring and manufactured nanoparticles and nanostructured have been reported and varieties of others are expected to appear in the future. This chapter discusses novel synthesis methods for producing nanoparticles and nanostructured materials based on CaCO3, ZnCO3, Ag, ZnO, and SiO2; and an in-depth treatment of their characterization and physicochemical properties compared to those of the bulk materials.
