About Metal Oxide Nanoparticles

Nanoparticles of metal oxides with 1-100 nm in size are called as metal oxide nanoparticles. They are available in various shapes such as spherical, octagonal, diamond, and thin sheets. Since the advent of nanotechnology, metal oxide nanomaterials have been at the center of research.

Although these nanomaterials are widely used in the commercial and industrial sectors, many are produced for skin care products, as they provide protection from UV radiation. They are also used as a thickener or pigment in many personal care products, in the production of semiconductors and solar cells in the energy sector, and as a pigment in paints and coatings. As these nanomaterials can destroy some types of pollutants, they are used in selective catalytic reduction systems to reduce atmospheric nitrous emissions. Due to the number of applications in various segments, metal oxides accounted for the largest share of the total nanoparticles market in 2015.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global metal oxide nanoparticles market to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% during the period 2016-2020.
