#ChemTour: Nanotechnology

Get a little closer to chemistry each month with the 2022 #ChemTour. This month is all about nanotechnology!

Nanotechnology and nanoscience look at particles and structures on the order of 1 鈥� 100 nm, where chemical properties of materials can be vastly different from single molecule or bulk materials. Consider, for example, how the of gold nanoparticles differ from the shiny yellow of a gold ring or how the strength and conductivity of carbon differs from brittle diamonds.

From , some of the biggest advances take place at the smallest level. Recent studies have used nanoparticles to , create colorful spray-on s, and . Nanostructures, like and (MOFs), have precise architecture that can isolate water molecules and separate ethane from propane. You can even make !
