September 2024 • Xiaojing Wang, Yuechang Lian, Siyuan Xiang, Shengyang Tao, Michael Kappl, Wendong Liu
Supraparticles are agglomerates of nano- and/or microparticles with sizes ranging from tens to hundreds of microns, making them more accessible for handling and recovery than the building blocks. Supraparticles not only inherit the properties and functions of primary particles but also exhibit characteristics such as high porosity, large specific surface area, and improved functionalities, which can be attributed to the synergism, coupling, and co-localization among the constituents. Therefore, supraparticles hold…
