Formation and Stabilization
Dispersion Methods
Colloids can be formed by reducing the size of larger particles or aggregating smaller ones. Methods include grinding, emulsification, and condensation. Mechanical methods (e.g., milling, homogenization) or chemical methods (e.g., precipitation) can be used to disperse particles in the medium.
Nanoparticle production
Our proprietary top-down production Methods overcome typical limitations of other methods such as chemical reduction, sol-gel processes, or electrochemical techniques, enabling the production of nanoparticles with precise characteristics and constant quality without chemicals and lowest energy consumption.
Stabilization Techniques
Surface modification of nanoparticles with ligands, polymers, or surfactants can improve dispersion and stability within the medium. To prevent coagulation, clumping, settling or precipitation, stabilizing agents like surfactants may be added. Electrostatic or steric stabilization are also common methods.
