Colloidal Nanoparticles Advance Frontiers of Synthetic Chemistry
From AsyntMay 5 2021
Researchers from the School of Chemistry at the University of St Andrews (UK) are using a DrySyn Spiral Evaporator from Asynt to help synthesize novel reactive colloidal nanoparticles that present an exciting tool to create a new generation of 'smart' nanomaterials.
