What Are Some Applications of Nanotechnology in Thermal Protection?
Nanotechnology finds applications in various fields requiring advanced thermal management:
- Electronics: Incorporating nanomaterials like graphene and CNTs into thermal interface materials can improve heat dissipation in microprocessors and LEDs. - Aerospace: Nanocomposites and aerogels are used in spacecraft and aircraft to provide thermal insulation and protect against extreme temperatures. - Textiles: Nanofibers and nano-coatings can be applied to fabrics to create thermally insulating clothing, which is useful for both everyday wear and specialized applications like firefighting.
