Nanotechnology has gained so much interest in today’s world. It is known to be the science of nanoscales which is less than 100 nanometre in size. This technology has been employed for different applications due to its eco-friendly and sustainable ability in the various fields of applications. Recently, nanotechnology is used in bio sensing, drug delivery, nano devices, separation and purification purposes. These nanoparticles which are used in the building blocks of many materials, and the synthesis methods vary for all due to their physical and chemical properties. This study attempts to review the field of nanotechnology, synthesis of nanoparticles, the properties of nanoparticles, the advantages and disadvantages of different methods and their applications.
