Research Progress of Microfluidic Technique in Synthesis of Micro/Nano Materials

Abstract

Micro/nano materials have unique properties that are different from macro materials because of their small scale, and these materials have diverse applications in many fields. In recent years, with the unique advantages of low consumption, high efficiency, high throughput, miniaturization, integration and automation, microfluidic technique has aroused widespread concerns in the synthesis field of micro/nano materials. In this review, the commonly used microreactors are classified from two perspectives of structural form and reaction method, and the application of microfluidic technique in the synthesis of micro/nano materials including inorganic materials, organic materials and composite materials are introduced. In addition, the main development trends in the future are prospected in this review. Microfluidic technique has provided new ideas and methods for the synthesis of micro/nano materials, which has rich possibilities and great potentials in both industrial production and academic research.

Size, Morphology and Crystallinity Control Strategy of Ultrafine HMX by Microfluidic Platform

“…Microfluidic technology can realize rapid and uniform mixing of multiple fluids at micro-scale in micropipes or microchips, and has been widely used in many fields such as fine chemical preparation [ 21 , 22 ] and drug synthesis [ 23 , 24 , 25 ]. In recent years, it has also shown great potential in energetic material preparation [ 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ] due to its precise control of reaction parameter and minimal reagent consumption. Compared with traditional experimental methods, microfluidic system is more conducive to the preparation of high-quality ultrafine energetic materials with different particle size and narrow particle size distribution [ 30 , 31 ].…”
