Smart Materials & Nanotechnology

Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology

Nano Materials are designed materials with advanced benefits in various fields of Science, available in variable modes. These materials weigh light but sound hard in the material science subject. Nano materials are smart materials with definite designed structures. Nano devices, the quickest moving segment of the general market, the Nanotech research involves in smart sensors and smart delivery systems, Magnetic Nano devices, Nano-biosensors, Nano switches, Optical biosensors, and biologically inspired. The 2000s have seen the introduction of the applications of Nanotechnology in commercial products, although most applications are congested to the bulk use of passive Nano materials. Examples include titanium dioxide and zinc oxide Nanoparticles in sunscreen, cosmetics and some of the food products; carbon Nanotubes for stain-resistive textiles; and cerium oxide as a fuel catalyst.
