Résumé : |
Ever since the first article on molecular nanotechnology, that K. Eric Drexler published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA in 1981, nanotechnology has received wide attention among the scientific fraternity due to its immense potential in altering material properties and creating unique materials by inducing smart functionalities. This youngest discipline of science has become the hottest field of research during the last decade and succeeded in proliferating its wings in all major industries for numerous exciting commercial applications.
The recent advancement of Nanotechnology that design materials from the bottom up, has unleashed fascinating possibilities not only in the high end applicatio areas such as mimic of protein, drug delivery, quantum dots, fuel cells etc but also in the fields of coatings, polymer composites, adhesive, textiles, cosmetics, electronics etc. The possibilities are so wide that one simply needs to identify where to fit it and how to master the art of incorporating these particles for deriving technological benefits.
In the context of coatings nanotechnology has opened up a novel gateway in front of coatings researchers with immense possibilities for new generation coatings developments which are claimed to have exhibited spectacular improvement in property enhancement by several orders of magnitude even in thinner layer. This article will briefly discuss the limitations of existing approach in providing solutions to commonly encountered coating problems experienced in the coating industry and at the same time how nanotechnology or the materials prepared via this converging route of technology (nanomaterials) could potentially be introduced to address these key problems successfully. The possible opportunities with specific examples and potential areas of application have been reviewed. Also the challenges and hurdles involved in adapting this technology and its future outlook have been discussed. |
