Combustion synthesis is a novel method for preparing oxide nanoparticles. A number of preparing methods have been scaled up to industrial production, such as gas combustion and combustion flame-chemical vapor condensation (CF-CVC). Some new growth technologies, such as low-temperature combustion synthesis, atomizing-combustion and electrically-controlled flame synthesis, have their respective merits and shortcomings. The combination of combustion method and other technologies is also under investigation. In...
