Copper Nanoparticles

The copper nanoparticles are used in different areas of science and technology because these nanoparticles have good properties because their properties are different from the large material.

The copper is a ductile metal with very high thermal and electrical conductivity but the copper nanoparticles are round and look like brown to black powder. The uses of copper nanoparticle are for EMI shielding, metals and high strength alloys, heat sinks and highly thermal conductive materials, etc.

The importance for the career is that it broadens the field in which one can perform and as it is a new technology there are still many things to investigate.

I chose the copper nanoparticles because my cousin is doing his thesis related to this material so I was reading a bit about these.

The use that can given in the future could be to create different items for personal use for example dental plaques, prosthesis, etc because the copper nanoparticle acts as an antibiotic, antimicrobial and antifungal agent.

The impact i think can be mostly positive because brings advances in science and technology also facilitates the human life but the negative impact can be in the environment for the synthesis of the object.

The copper nanoparticles or the nanotechnology is a new technology so in undeveloped countries this technology we can't develop because we don't have the tools.
