Abstract :
Nanotechnology is a field of passionate research activity due to ability of potential applications in several area. Nanotechnology includes the research and engineering of new materials at the nanoscale level. The broad applications of nanoscale metal oxide particles are among the available nanomaterials because of their unique excellent properties. The indispensable properties of metal oxide nanoparticles are physical properties like high surface area, small size, high reactivity and optical properties, higher ductility at elevated temperatures, cold welding properties, superparamagnetic properties, electric properties, unique catalytic, sensitivity, and selective activity. Metal oxide nanoparticles exhibit peculiar adsorptive properties and fast diffuseness and they are unstable in critical conditions. Among many metal oxide nanomaterials, Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanomaterials have emerged as an adaptable material in various fields due to their unique properties and extensive applications. This review article provides thorough information about advance applications of ZnO nanomaterials across diverse domains. It has gained significant attention in various applications, particularly in drug delivery systems, agriculture and food industry, cosmetics, textiles, tissue engineering, health care, paints, antibacterial agents, bioimaging, environmental remediation.
