The article discusses the significance of "nanographene" as a new material in the fields of Chemical Biology and Materials Chemistry, highlighting its high surface area, excellent charge carrier mobility, and essential photocatalytic properties. By employing a melt mixing/compounding fabrication strategy, nanographene can be utilized in pharmaceuticals, nano-imaging, and other areas, showcasing substantial advancements and potential breakthroughs.
Smart electronic materials 'nanographene' stated, its significant authentication has undergone massive improvements and has emerged as a 'material of the century' in materialize fields of 'Chemical Biology' and 'Materials Chemistry'. 'Graphene' as a wonder material has been proposed to possess a high surface area (similar to 2600 m(2) g(-1)), high portability of charge carriers and excellent mechanical qualities. Moreover, the long-extend pi-conjugation of graphene is an essential photocatalytic property enabling wide ranging biosensor activities. Herein, critical review article reflects well known yet a brand-new novel material 'nanographene' and its versatile integrations, utilized for substantial enrichment of desired properties. Target cost-effectiveness, plasticity, and environment-friendliness of melt mixing/compounding fabrication strategy employed to utilize in-vivo, in-vitro, and in- situ, pharmaceutical, nano-imaging protocols. Owing to nanographene's wide range expansion, summarized latest breakthroughs in Materials Science as well as Biomedical utilizations including cancer nanotechnology, drug delivery, tissue manufacturing, scaffold, photo-thermal therapy, antimicrobial activities, made up of exploring the significant opportunities and key challenges in this novel emerging field.
