That is much too broad a question to expect an answer in this forum. Try googling "nanoparticles chemistry"

What is very interesting about nano-sized compounds is that due to their large surface area, they are highly reactive. For example, Fe and FeO made from heating Iron oxlate (a known path to nano-sized particles) will burn (sparks) in contact with air. Cool.
