Abstract

We propose a short review paper on the mainly adopted techniques for the production of metal nanoparticles in industrial and laboratory scale. The methods are grouped according to the wellknown classification in bottom-up and top-down schemes, with a particular emphasis on the operating conditions specifically adopted. Namely, some aspects concerning the experimental setup, the choice of precursors and reactants and the relevant technical advantages/limitations of the methods are discussed and compared in light of the most recent issues in matter of metal nanoparticles synthesis.
