Description

One of the most crucial factors in the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials is the choice of synthesis method. Since the synthesis process is heavily reliant on the particle size and molecular structure, it has a significant impact on the final properties of the nanoparticles. The top-down and bottom-up approaches are the two primary approaches. In contrast to the top-down method, which breaks down larger carbon sources like graphite or bulk carbon materials into nanoscale structures, the bottom-up method uses a variety of chemical reactions, including dehydration, carbonization, polymerization, and other irreversible chemical reactions, to create nanoparticles. In this chapter, the various top-down and bottom-up synthesis routes are covered, along with their effects on the physico-chemical characteristics of carbon nanomaterials. 2025 Elsevier Inc.
