Abstract
Janus particles have a noncentral symmetric structure. Since they have two or more different physical and chemical properties, they show different properties and application potential of isotropic particles. Janus nanoparticles have been extensively used in catalysts, surfactants, nanosensors and cancer therapy. This review outlines the different types of techniques for designing and synthesizing Janus nanoparticles. It also describes the latest developments in Janus nanoparticle research in cancer treatment, catalysis, nanosensors and surfactants over the past few years. Finally, the future orientations of the research and the possibilities of application are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Coordination Chemistry Reviews offers rapid publication of review articles on current and significant topics in coordination chemistry, encompassing organometallic, supramolecular, theoretical, and bioinorganic chemistry. It also covers catalysis, materials chemistry, and metal-organic frameworks from a coordination chemistry perspective. Reviews summarize recent developments or discuss specific techniques, welcoming contributions from both established and emerging researchers.
The journal releases special issues on timely subjects, including those featuring contributions from specific regions or conferences. Occasional full-length book articles are also featured. Additionally, special volumes cover annual reviews of main group chemistry, transition metal group chemistry, and organometallic chemistry. These comprehensive reviews are vital resources for those engaged in coordination chemistry, further establishing Coordination Chemistry Reviews as a hub for insightful surveys in inorganic and physical inorganic chemistry.
