Nanotechnology for everyone

ONE BILLIONTH OF EVERYTHING

ONE BILLIONTH OF EVERYTHING

Nanostructures exhibit interesting and useful properties different to microstructures, (as matter size range is important when dealing with materials properties-since size is an important parameter, affecting materials properties)-since size is an important parameter, affecting materials properties)

Small maybe beautiful, but nano is also efficient!

INVISIBLE BUT EVERYWHERE

Amazing nanostructures with unique properties are ubiquitous in nature.

Beautiful aerodynamic butterfly wings, hydrophobic lotus plant leafs and light iridescent peacock feathers, are only some of those we admire on a daily basis.

INVISIBLE BUT EVERYWHERE
HUGE BENEFITS OF BEING TINY

Tiny by design

Scientists can produce nanomaterials using different methods:

  • high energy beams
  • liquid chemistry and electrochemistry
  • high temperature reactions
  • and more...

They are used to produce:

  • nanoparticles
  • nanowires
  • nanorods
  • nanofibers

Using these methods, nanodiamonds, simple metal and oxide nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes have been produced and are used in many applications.

THE FUTURE TODAY

Nanomaterials are already used in many applications in various industrial sectors such as energy and environment, food & agriculture, medical, pharmaceuticals & cosmetics, electronics & computers and a great number consumer products.

The future of nanotechnology looks promising and is among the fastest growing scientific sectors.

….and in a great number of consumer products.

THE FUTURE TODAY

AND YOU?

Nanoparticles, created either by nature or human hand, have entered every aspect of our life! Be a pioneer and use nanomaterials to improve the performance of your products, increase their efficiency and competitiveness through the latest nanomaterials.
