Properties at the nanoscale Magnetic,Mechanical,and chemical behaviour Nanoscale materials also have size-dependent magnetic behaviour.At very small sizes(a few nanometres),magnetic nanoclusters have a single magnetic domain,and the strongly coupled magnetic spins on each atom combine to produce a particle with a single"giant"spin. Magnetic,Mechanical,and chemical behaviour Mechanical properties of nanostructured materials can reach exceptional strengths.As a specific example,the introduction of two-nanometre aluminum oxide precipitates into thin films of pure nickel results in yield strengths increasing from 0.15 to 5 gigapascals,which is more than twice that for a hard bearing steel.Another example of exceptional mechanical properties at the nanoscale is the carbon nanotube,which exhibits great strength and stiffness along its longitudinal axis.
