Applications
Aluminum nanoparticles are highly reactive and flammable, requiring careful handling. Rapid movements and vibrations should be avoided. The nanopowder must be stored away from sunlight, heat, moisture, and impacts. Because particle coagulation is a significant concern, it should be vacuum-sealed and kept in cool, dry conditions with minimal air exposure.
Aluminum nanopowder can be used in catalysis and biomedical research. It may also be incorporated into heat transfer fluids, composite materials, packaging materials, transparent conductive fluids, and wear-resistant components to improve their performance.
