Motility of Catalytic Nanoparticles through Self‐Generated Forces
Abstract
Small‐scale synthetic motors capable of generating their own motive forces by exploiting the chemical free energy of their environment represent an important step in developing practical nanomachines. Catalytic particles are capable of generating concentration and other gradients that can be used to self‐propel small objects. However, the autonomous movement of catalytic nanoparticles by self‐generated forces is a relatively unexplored area in colloid and interfacial chemistry. This paper explores the potential of catalytically self‐generated forces for propulsion of small objects through fluids.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
