1. Microfluidic reactor technology

In line with the growing interest in nanoscience and nanotechnology in the design of advanced nanostructured products, the question of synthesizing particles of controlled size and shape is one of the key stages. Since the pioneering work on nanoparticle synthesis in batch reactors, and its structural impact on the design of nanomaterials, scaling up from the laboratory to industrial production is a real challenge, given the difficulty of reproducing processes on a large scale. Indeed, control of size and morphology is particularly impacted by heat and mass transfer within reactors, and in this context, miniaturized continuous flow chemistry systems (micro-milli-fluidic devices) have become popular and attractive, appearing as reactors of choice due to their unique characteristics meeting these various reproducibility criteria.
