Nanosized interval

Previously, we [5] proposed the parameter called the nanosized interval (B), in which the nanostructures demonstrate their activity. Depending on the structure and composition of nanoreactor internal walls, distance between them, shape and size of nanoreactor, the nanostructures differing in activity are formed. The correlation between surface energy, taking into account the thickness of surface layer, and volume energy was proposed as a measure of the activity of nanostructures, nanoreactors and nanosystems [11-... 

Micro-emulsion polymerization is a new and effective approach for preparing nanosized polymer particles and has attracted significant attention. Emulsion and micro-emulsion polymerization differ in the kinetics of the polymerization. Emulsion polymerization exhibits three reaction rate intervals, whereas only two are detected in micro-emulsion polymerization. Both particle size and the average number of chains per particle are considerably smaller in micro-emulsion polymerization (Schork et al., 2005).
