41. Their large surface area to volume ratio can achieve rapid and low cost reactions, using a variety of designs. 42. These structures absorb heavy metal toxins effectively due to high surface / volume ratio and the quality of surface. 43. One example is the increase in surface area to volume ratio altering mechanical, thermal and catalytic properties of materials. 44. Because the silicon is sponge-like, it has a very high surface-area-to-volume ratio and this creates a very efficient burn. 45. Nanoparticles also have a large surface area to volume ratio , which presents more area for charge transfer to occur. 46. Heating plastic soils requires higher temperatures because of the low surface area to volume ratio and increased moisture content. 47. Catalysts with high surface area to volume ratio are preferred because of diffusion limitations due to high operating temperature. 48. One unique feature that results from miniaturization of the sample vessel is the inevitable increased surface area to volume ratio . 49. Size also plays a role as the surface to volume ratio influence the rate of uptake from the surrounding water. 50. These shape changes affect the surface to volume ratio , which affects the cohesive energy and thermal properties of a nanostructure.
