ABSTRACT
Nanotechnology has gained immense research attention as a result of the fascinating and attractive properties of nanomaterials. The application of nanomaterials ranges from sports materials to space materials. The end properties of nanomaterials significantly depend on the methods used in their synthesis. The craft of tuning and tailoring the properties of materials at the molecular/atomic scale has an extensive influence on the properties of nanomaterials. Therefore, research into developing simple, affordable, and reproducible methods has been widely carried out with the objective of improving the overall properties as well as applications of these materials. In this review the authors describe the different ways of synthesizing nanomaterials which have been classified as physical, chemical, and biological routes.
