How is Nanotechnology Integrated with Polyurethane?
Nanotechnology involves the manipulation of matter on an atomic or molecular scale, typically less than 100 nanometers. When nanomaterials are incorporated into polyurethane, they can significantly enhance its properties. The integration of nanotechnology with polyurethane can lead to improvements in mechanical strength, thermal stability, and chemical resistance. This is achieved by dispersing nanoparticles such as carbon nanotubes, nanoclays, and metal oxides within the polymer matrix.
