This Small Business Innovation Research Phase II project will develop new scale up methods for the synthesis of surface stabilized metal nanoparticles from aerosol. The advantage of chemical aerosol-flow synthesis is in its simplicity in procedure and experimental setup, low cost and scalability. The method allows for the synthesis of high quality nanoparticles in continuous flow regimen. Phase I results proved feasibility of the method for the synthesis of high quality silver nanoparticles with high yield. This Phase II project will focus on increasing manufacturing capabilities to decrease the cost of nanoparticles significantly.Low cost, printed electrical conductors are expected to be a rapidly growing market for flexible electronics and solar cells. Reducing processing temperatures and material costs are key enablers to these growing applications. The low cost production of nanometals will contribute to these trends.

这个小企业创新研究第二阶段项目将开发新的规模扩大方法，用于从气溶胶中合成表面稳定的金属纳米颗粒。 化学气溶胶流合成的优势在于其过程和实验装置简单、成本低和可扩展性。该方法允许在连续流动方案中合成高质量的纳米颗粒。 阶段I结果证明了该方法用于以高产率合成高质量银纳米颗粒的可行性。该项目的第二阶段将专注于提高制造能力，以显著降低纳米颗粒的成本。低成本印刷导电体预计将成为柔性电子和太阳能电池的快速增长市场。 降低加工温度和材料成本是这些不断增长的应用的关键推动因素。 纳米金属的低成本生产将有助于这些趋势。
