This calculator can determine Nanoparticles yield of your synthesized sample by using different weight and EDS/EDx values.

Input Parameters Precursor Weight

Precursor Molecular Weight

g/mol

Nanoparticle Atomic Mass

g/mol

Nanoparticles Weight After Drying

Weight % of Nanoparticle from EDS

Calculation Tutorial:

STEP 1: Enter the weight of the precursor taken for the synthesis of Nanoparticles.

STEP 2: Enter the Molecular Weight (M.W.) of Precursor, for example Silver Nitrate is having molecular weight of 168.87 g/mol.

STEP 3: Enter the Atomic Mass of the Nanoparticles synthesized, for example atomic mass of Silver is 107.87.

STEP 4: Enter the final weight of the Synthesized Nanoparticles after centrifuge/drying (it should be without any solvent).

STEP 5: Enter the Weight Percent of Nanoparticle. It can be obtained by using the Elemental Analysis via EDS (Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy). It is the weight percent of Synthesized Nanoparticle. For example, if you have synthesized Silver Nanoparticles by some method, then you performed EDS and got 60 as the weight percent of Silver in your sample and others are Carbon, Oxygen, Potassium etc.

NOTE: If you have synthesized some Nanoparticle Oxide (e.g. AgO) or some complex Metal Nanoparticle (e.g. CdS), then you need to enter the total weight percent of that metal + its bonded element.
