Continuous flow hydrothermal synthesis offers a cost-efficient, environmentally friendly and highly scalable route to produce a wide range of materials. Recent advances in reactor design at Nottingham have led to the development of a high-throughput, continuous flow synthesis (CFS) method that has already proven suitable for the controlled production of various inorganic micro- and nanomaterials, mainly metal oxide based particles. In this thesis, the scope of this technology has been widened to include materials never before produced using flow systems.
