Descrição
Resumo:Carbon based nanomaterials have unique advantages in several areas due to its electronic, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. In these terms, nanodiamonds have attracted considerable attention in recent years in different research areas such as biological sensing, medical therapy, fluorescent markers, enzyme immobilization and so on. Nanodiamond (ND) is a new member of carbon nanoparticle family with a truncated octahedral architecture that showed superior characteristics of diamond. This review is focus on synthesis methods, dispersion, functionalization, medical applications and toxicity of nanodiamonds.
