I would like to do a study on the relationship between the various metrics used for the measurement of nanoparticles and the mass, but I have a few measured data.
The question relates to any NP, for example titanium dioxide or CNT, and and mass means the weight
But it's pretty simple, if one uses a density of any material. What is the way of theoretical diameter estimation? Is that a calculation from SBET?
I do not want to calculate the are of the surface of the nano.
i would like to calculate, in a theoretical way, having a distribution of nano-particles, for example from 1 nM to 100 nM of a given substance, the mass (weight) of each measure nanoparticle from 1 to 100 NM.
I mean, every molecule has its own three-dimensional shape in space, caused by the bonds between the atoms. then we can in a theoretical way knowing the distance between the atomic nuclei and the angle which they have in the three-dimensional space. having a theoretical sphere of 1 NN we can calculate the theoretical volume of this sphere, and knowing the structure of a molecule, we can calculate the theoretical volume of a single molecule? knowing the total volume of the sphere V sp and the volume of a molecule Vm, it is legitimate to divide V sp / V me know the number of molecules present in the volume? if it were true that I can multiply the atomic weight of the molecule by the total number of the molecule and to know the mass of the nanoparticle.
I have to take into account the Van der Walls forces or other forces at work? these change between the Nano environment and the Bulk environment ? or I can just like in the game "lego" assemble the molecules to fill the sphere? thank for any response
