Nanotechnology can significantly improve furniture in several ways:
1. Durability: By embedding nanoparticles like carbon nanotubes or nanoclay into materials, the structural integrity of furniture can be enhanced, making it more resistant to wear and tear. 2. Self-cleaning properties: Nanocoatings can be applied to furniture surfaces to impart self-cleaning properties, reducing the need for regular cleaning. 3. Antimicrobial surfaces: Incorporating silver nanoparticles can provide antimicrobial properties, making the furniture more hygienic. 4. Improved aesthetics: Nanoparticles like titanium dioxide can be used to create surfaces that are scratch-resistant and retain their appearance for longer periods.
