Why modify the powder? Inorganic powders have hydrophilic and polar surfaces, but poor compatibility with organic matrices (plastics, rubber, resins). Direct use can lead to poor performance, so modification is necessary. (1) Improve dispersibility and prevent agglomeration. Inorganic powders with a large specific surface area are prone to agglomeration, which can lead to defects and a decrease in...

Gold nanoparticles refer to ultrafine gold particles with a particle size between 1 and 100 nanometers. Unlike macroscopic gold, nanoscale gold exhibits significant surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effects, quantum size effects, and a huge specific surface area. These characteristics endow it with excellent optical, electrical, and catalytic properties in complex biological environments. In additio...
