Audience Level General
Description Nano system is known as a functional system for doing a task in which nanomaterials are used. Nano systems are explained in this course.
Overview
Nano systems are known as multifunctional systems engineered at nanoscales. Distinctive physicochemical properties with massive prospects in therapeutic and diagnostic applications distinguish this kind of systems.

Nanomaterials are chemical substances or materials that are synthesized and used at nanoscales. Nanomaterials are developed for exhibiting striking features in comparison with the same materials without nanoscale features; features such as increased strength, chemical reactivity, conductivity and magnetic.


Booklet
Description
 It starts with introducing another type of catalytic nanoparticles which are gold nanocatalysts. It gives a brief history on gold, brings up some examples, mechanisms, studies, applications and several types of reactions and applications. It also talks about the process that the nanocatalyst undergoes, and some examples of the use of nanocatalysts.
Mental Challenge
 Why are gold nanoparticles so important in comparison with other nanocatalysts? 
Quizzes and Activities
 Activity: Find a real-world application of gold nanoparticles in nanocatalysis?
