A versatile and robust microfluidic platform toward high throughput synthesis of homogeneous nanoparticles with tunable properties

Abstract

A versatile and robust microfluidic nanoprecipitation platform for high throughput synthesis of nanoparticles is fabricated. The versatility of this platform is proven through the successful preparation of different types of nanoparticles. This platform presents great robustness, with homogeneous nanoparticles always being obtained, regardless of the formulation parameters. The diameter and surface charge of the prepared nanoparticles can also be easily tuned.

Keywords: high throughput synthesis; microfluidics; nanoparticles; nanoprecipitation; robustness.
