Hi there,


I have to compare the cost of production of different nanoparticles
production methods for nanometals. I have already found several
techniques like pulse wire evaporation, thermal plasma, chemical
process, sol-gel process etc., but I could not find on the internet
any comparison between costs of production at least in percentage,
like 100% thermal plasma, 50% chemical etc. Which is the most
expensive method regarding equipment cost? And operating cost?

As far as I heard, the chemical method is the cheapest one (at the
cost of the crystallinity) , then the gas/vapor condensation method
and the most costly one is the thermal plasma.

I would appreciate any answer, a.s.a.p. Thank you in advance.

Mark
