First of all you need to state which material you are going to synthesize. Then, which method you want to adopt. Then, it will be easy to tell you.
Like surfactants can be used for synthesis of various nanostructured material. Reaction paramters such as reaction temperature, concentration of reactants, type of reactants and more vary accordingly.
Solid state reaction method and Combustion methods are used for the production of nano rods and nano wires. In this techniques we adjust the temperature ranges w.r.t time.
