Loading 10 mg/L was below the limits of the instrument under chosen experimental conditions
Zn and Ni NPs settled after 60 minutes of exposure. Al NPs were relatively stable for 1 hour.
Zn 10 mg/L
Zn 100 mg/L
Ni 10 mg/L
Ni 100 mg/L Al

Al 10 mg/L

Nanoparticles characteristics (size, amount of metal released, stability) changed significantly with time (agglomeration + gradual dissolution + sedimentation).
Reducing the loading of nanoparticles in solution in 10 times increased the dissolution rate of Al in 2.5 times, Zn – in 3.1 times, Ni – in 2.2 times.
The loading of particles did not affect the kinetics of dissolution.
The influence of particles loading on the agglomeration process was not investigated due to the limits of the technique under chosen experimental conditions.
