Dataset on constructing colloidal nanoparticles into dry nano-micro-particle (NMP) powders with nanoscale magnetic, plasmonic and catalytic functionalities.

The data presented in this article is related to the research article entitled "A One-Pot Method for Building Colloidal Nanoparticles into Bulk Dry Powders with Nanoscale Magnetic, Plasmonic and Catalytic Functionalities" (Ye et al., 2019) The data shows the hydrophobicity of the nanoparticle (NP) building blocks used for constructing NMPs obtained through contact angle measurements, along with the effect of NP hydrophobicity on the stability of the parent Pickering emulsions. SEM data of the morphology of NMPs is presented. Finally, a mathematical model is presented to predict the average diameter of NMPs produced via different experimental parameters.
