Nanotechnology enhances durability through several mechanisms:
1. Surface Coatings: Nanomaterials can be used to create protective coatings that are resistant to scratches, corrosion, and other forms of damage. 2. Reinforcement: Incorporating nanoparticles into composites can improve their mechanical properties, making them stronger and more resilient. 3. Self-Healing Materials: Some nanomaterials have the ability to self-repair when damaged, thereby prolonging their operational life. 4. Enhanced Chemical Resistance: Nanocoatings can provide better resistance to chemical reactions, thereby preventing degradation.
