Abstract
Numerous experimental data indicate that nanosystems develop by stages. The evolution route of closed nanosystems includes stages of nanoparticle nucleation, growth, ripening, and agglomeration, and texture and composition ordering. In closed systems, nanodispersed substances occur in the nano-state for a limited period of time, which can be changed by varying the supersaturation of the medium with respect to nanoparticles. Nanoparticles in open systems tend to degrade due to chemical transformations, dissolution, or evaporation and the lifetime of open systems can be estimated. At every stage of development of nanosystems, the rates of variation of the state parameters of nanoparticles fluctuate over a scale much exceeding the molecular scale. The behavior of the set of nanoparticles is described by a Fokker—Planck type equation, which may underlie the formulation of the principal equation of physicochemical evolution of nanosystem.
