Nano/Microstructured Materials: Rapid, Low-Cost, and Eco-Friendly Synthesis Methods

Chemists are required to generate a diverse array of organic and inorganic molecules using eco-friendly conditions, including low-cost and short-reaction times. A primary driver of synthetic chemistry is, therefore, the development of efficient and environmentally benign synthetic protocols, as the pressure to produce the myriad of substances required by society in an eco-friendly fashion has continued to increase. Up to now, many works have been published on synthesis and characterization of various multidimensional micro/nanostructured materials via diverse synthesis methods. However, complex conditions and long synthesis time were required for most of these technologies.
