land was that dream. My passion for research kept me going. Despite the full academic workload‚ the high expectation and the competitive environment‚ I have never let myself been occupied by grades and assessments. Instead‚ I took part in a nanomaterial research program at the university. Many long hours were spent in the laboratory. Many weekends were forgone. Many white nights were spent writing report and analysis. Life of a researcher is full of scarification but the experience is immeasurably

the Future General 41. Nanotechnology is poised for widespread use in the defence sector‚ wherein they can offer significant benefits over a variety of applications ranging from making more durable concrete to miniature surveillance devices. Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites are being considered for uses in related industries and at the nanoscale‚ these materials can behave differently from their conventional scale counterparts‚ which creates exciting new prospects in a variety of applications particularly

and related structures. A single-walled‚ carbon nanotube is a strawlike structure with a one-atom-thick wall of carbon atoms. Lighter‚ stronger and more flexible than steel‚ carbon nanotubes are believed by many to be the most promising of all nanomaterials. Nanoscale titanium dioxide‚ for instance‚ is finding uses in cosmetics‚ sun-block creams‚ and self-cleaning windows. And nanoscale

Nanotechnology Applications Nanotechnology is science that involves working with matter at the molecular or nano-scale (25‚ 400‚ 000 nanometers equal 1 inch) dimension‚ the understanding and control of matter at dimensions between 1 and 100 nanometers (AmericanElements‚ 2010). Today where unique phenomena enable novel applications‚ this includes Fuel Cell Development‚ Biotechnology‚ and Medicine among others. Using the heating properties of iron oxide nanoparticles in gene regulation‚ cancer therapy

Given the potential dangers of nanotechnology‚ should it be used to lightweight sports equipment? Nanotechnology has an array of uses‚ from sunscreen to sporting equipment. Sports equipment has been vastly innovated by the discovery and application of nanotechnology in recent years. The highest end tennis racquets‚ baseball bats and even racing bicycles all use nanotechnology to combine strength and lightness provided by this technology. Some of the bicycles made with nanotechnology are priced at
