Nano-flowers are larger than the nanoparticles, so the surface area will be different. In this case, is there any chance of reducing the response time in nano flowers compared to nanoparticles when it is exposed to a gas?

Hi,
Hierarchical nanostructures such as nanoflowers, urchin, etc., tend to have good response and recovery time, because they have large surface area. Also if the nanoflowers are hollow or porous, it may also even better in responding and recovering because the pores would allow for better adsorption/desorption of gases. In contrast, nanoparticles tend to aggregate together so ideally they shouldn't have better response or recovery time compared to nanoflowers.
Hope this answer would be of any help.
