Settling characteristics of nanoparticles in ethanol-water mixtures

Nanofluids are dilute suspensions of functionalized nanoparticles having diameter less than 100 nm. Settling of nanoparticles due to gravity is a natural phenomenon and the only predicament towards their usage in industrial scale. Knowledge of sedimentation behavior of nanoparticles is a topic of...
