Green Nanotechnology: The Influence of Intermolecular and Supramolecular Interactions

104 In the last decade, the study of nanometer-scale particles has grown exponentially worldwide. This growth is due to the broad field of nanostructures applications, which, due to their dimensions in nanometric sizes, have new properties not found in micro and macro scale. These properties result from the increase in the ratio between the surface area and volume, and the nanostructures’ size directly influences these [1]. Tolerance to temperature, variety of colors, changes in chemical reactivity, efficiency in action against microorganisms, and electrical conductivity are differentiating factors. [2].
