Chemical reactions in nanoparticles

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

The problems related to the influence of the nanoparticle size on the chemical reaction proceeding in it are investigated theoretically. As an example, the reaction of oxidation of a nanosized silicon particle is considered.
