METAL-CONTAINING NANOPARTICLES, THEIR SYNTHESIS AND USE

摘要

A powder batch is described comprising single crystal metal-containing particles having a crystal size of less than 50nm as measured by X-ray diffraction and having a weight average particle size of from about 10 nanometers to less than 100 nanometers as measured by transmission electron microscopy and including a continuous or non-continuous coating of a ceramic material. The powder batch is preferably produced by flame spraying.
