Scandium Nanoparticles

Scandium (Sc) Nanoparticles, nanodots or nanopowder are spherical or nanoflake high surface area metal particles with properties and uses that include inhibiting transmission of HIV and other viruses. Nanoscale Scandium Particles are available in the size range of 10-200 nm, with specific surface area (SSA) in the 30-60 m²/g range and also available as flakes with an average particle size of 2-10 micron range with a specific surface area of approximately 40-80 m²/g. Nano Scandium Particles are also available in Ultra high purity and high purity, coated, oleic oil-coated, dispersed, and polymer-dispersed forms. They are also available as a dispersion through the AE Nanofluid production group. Nanofluids are generally defined as suspended nanoparticles in solution either using surfactant or surface charge technology. Nanofluid dispersion and coating selection technical guidance is also available. Other nanostructures include nanorods, nanowhiskers, nanohorns, nanopyramids and other nanocomposites. Surface functionalized nanoparticles allow for the particles to be preferentially adsorbed at the surface interface using chemically bound polymers.
