Ecotoxicity of nanoscale zero-valent iron particles – a review
The use of nanoscale zero-valent iron particles (nZVIs) in the environmental remediation of water and soil is increasing. This increase is related to the higher reactivity and mobility of nZVIs compared with that of macro- or micro-sized iron particles ...

Stability of green tea nanoscale zero-valent iron [PDF]
Colloidal suspension of nano zero-valent iron (nZVI), obtained as a result of mixing green tea (GT) solution with iron solutions (FeCl2 and FeSO4 separately to form two suspensions: GT-nZVIFeCl2 and GT-nZVIFeSO4) was assessed in terms of stability.

Analytical characterisation of nanoscale zero-valent iron: A methodological review [PDF]
Zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) have been widely tested as they are showing significant promise for environmental remediation. However, many recent studies have demonstrated that their mobility and reactivity in subsurface environments are significantly affected by their tendency to aggregate.
