Nanotechnology Science
Nanotechnology relates to the production, research and use of extremely small structures. The word 'nano' comes from the Greek language and means 'midget'. One nm (short for nanometre) equals one millionth of a millimeter or in other words one ten thousandth of the thickness of one human hair. The nanometre scale is the scale of single atoms and tiny molecules. One nanometre represents about 4 to 6 atoms. Particles on a nano scale, so called nano particles, or polymers (smaller than 100nm) are the building blocks of this technology. On the atomic scale used for ultra-thin coatings, the quantum effect (quantum refers to the smallest amount of a physical quantity) or the quantum mechanics (mechanics based on quantum theory) are of high significance. Whether around the house, in car businesses, aircraft engineering, material engineering or computer businesses, nano particles enable surfaces to become extremely tear and scratch proof with long protection against corrosion and a high sliding ability. When molecules that normally bustle about unorganised in materials, are structured in a way that each atom stay where it should be, the impossible becomes possible. Materials get new powers when the atoms are controlled and closely arranged. Production processes become cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Nanotechnology manipulates molecules through current, magnetism or chemistry, so that they organise themselves. Nature serves as the model for that: the cell and its function. The aim of nanotechnology is making molecules organise themselves without the help of a human. Nanotechnology is setting a trend for the future decades and opens new markets. Experts and the media name it the key technology of the 21st century.
Conclusion
The word Nano has become fashionable and unfortunately it is often used for products that have nothing to do with nanotechnology. This is very new and very complex that few people know the handle and create. This technology will evolve, and will facilitate the life of man in greatly reducing the use of cleaning products and pollutants. This technology has an infinite amount of applications and opens the door to a new industrial revolution comparable to that triggered by computers.
The progress made over the last 10 years are huge and are constantly pushing back the boundaries of the imagination.
If it can't be touched, it can't be ruined. That's the simplicity of the basic philosophy behind products from Nanoprotex. Nanotechnology is to become the third revolution after the industrial boom and computers. Using nanotechnology, you apply a protective surface to the things that you want to protect. nanoprotex's nanoparticles measure about 50 millionths of a millimeter - and when you see our products they look just like clean water. Behind each microscopic drop of our products there is a whole science that allows nanoparticles to act at the molecular level of treated surfaces.
