Watch this video about how physical and chemical properties affect which materials we use in everyday life. While you're watching, try to look out for properties which are opposite to each other.

Physical chemists are focused on understanding the physical properties of atoms and molecules, the way chemical reactions work ... and strive to understand the physical characteristics of a material ...

A nanocomposite combines two or more materials – of which at least one is a nanomaterial – with different physical and chemical properties. Nanocomposite materials are designed to exhibit properties ...

In nanomaterials, grain boundaries play a crucial role in determining various physical, chemical, and mechanical properties due to the high volume fraction of interfacial regions compared to bulk ...
