The unique properties of nanomaterials have led to revolutionary advancements in various fields:
Medicine: Nanomaterials are used in
drug delivery systems, where they can deliver medication directly to targeted cells, minimizing side effects. They are also used in
medical imaging and diagnostics.
Electronics: The high electrical conductivity and small size of nanomaterials make them ideal for use in
nanoelectronics, such as transistors, sensors, and flexible electronic devices.
Environmental Remediation: Nanomaterials can be used to purify water and air through their catalytic properties. They can also be used to detect and remove environmental pollutants.
Energy: Nanomaterials are used in
renewable energy applications, including more efficient solar cells and batteries with higher storage capacities.
Textiles: Nanotechnology is applied in textiles to create fabrics with water-repellent, stain-resistant, and antimicrobial properties.
