Suppose, a new metal nanoparticle synthesis process is carried out in my lab. And then, by which physical or lab tests confirm its nanoparticle confirmation ?
Size of the nanoparticles can be measured by Dynamic Light Scattering and TEM /SEM. Also elemental analysis can characterised by Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). FTIR is can be used for surface characterization of nanoparticles. TGA can be used for the identification of the composition of nanoparticles, to determine the effect of additives and the assessment of oxidative and thermal stability.
