3rd Global meeting on Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials

Smart materials are at least dual function, composites are materials composed of dissimilar phases or components (sometimes they’re called hybrid materials now), and Nano materials have been engineered on the Nano-scale Smart materials have multiple functions, which generally include sensor/actuator ability in addition to having form, or being able to support at least some structural weight. The classic example is Nitinol, which is a Nikcle-Titanium allow. After mechanical deformation (for example, bending), it can be heated up and will return to the pre-deformed structural shape. Lead-Zirconate-Titanate (PZT) is a ceramic, which responds to mechanical deformation by generating an electrical potential. In the reverse, an applied electrical potential leads to a geometric expansion of the material (actuator function). Composites are materials that are combinations of at least two different materials, which allow the engineering of desired properties (like tailoring mechanic...

  Industrial engineering  is a branch of engineering which deals with the optimization of complex processes or systems. It is concerned with the development, improvement, and implementation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences  together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes.                                                                           Mechanical engineering  is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics,and materials science for the d...

Nanotechnology in electronics (Nanoelectronics) increases the capabilities of electronics devices while reducing their weight and power consumption, it increases the density of memory chips and it reduces the size of transistors that used in integrated circuits . Nanoelectronics is the term used in the field of nanotechnology for electronic components and research on improvements of electronics such as display, size, and power consumption of the device for practical use. This includes research on memory chips and surface physical modifications on the electronic devices. Nanoelectronics cover quantum mechanical properties of the hybrid material, semiconductor, single-dimensional nanotubes, nanowires , and so forth. Well-developed nanoelectronics can be applied in different fields, and are especially useful for detecting disease-causing agents and disease biomarkers . As a consequence, point-of-care detection became popularized due to the involvement of n...

The application of nanotechnology in agriculture aims, in particular, to reduce applications of plant protection products, minimize nutrient losses in fertilization, and increase yields through optimized nutrient management. Nanotechnology devices and tools, like Nano capsules , nanoparticles, and even viral capsids, are examples of uses for the detection and treatment of diseases, the enhancement of nutrients absorption by plants, the delivery of active ingredients to specific sites and water treatment processes. The use of target-specific nanoparticles can reduce the damage to non-target plant tissues and the number of chemicals released into the environment. Nanotechnology derived devices are also explored in the field of plant breeding and genetic transformation. AREAS OF NANOSCIENCE RESEARCH AND APPLICATION IN AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SCIENCE The contribution of nanoscience research in agriculture is and probably will be in the following areas: • Food safety an...

Nanotechnology is based on exploring, learning and creating at extremely small sizes. Nano a Greek word means dwarf. Science has far exceeded that a Nano today means 1 billionth of a meter. We have manipulated atoms at that size, creating amazing designs and using mathematics we are now creating materials that can self-replicate, self-assemble(amazing to watch).We are at the realm of great advance in Medicine(killing cancer without hurting healthy cells) ( keeping soldiers alive on battlefields with wound sealants and self-assembling life supporting devices), computing( quantum computers using super AI ), communications ,space travel ( billions of Nano sized space ships travelling on laser beams at the speed of light too far off planets, self-assembling on those planets creating exploring laboratories, possibly mining rarest elements) , warfare( surveillance at the size of a blood cell), (super strong and super light weapons ) and unraveling the wonders of the quantum world....

Nanochemistry is something really amazing and goanna rock in future, Nanotechnology is getting stronger and stronger every next year, micro and Nano chips are replacing all the big bulky processors. The old floppy discs were able to store 1.4 Mbs which is not even enough for a complete mp3 file. Nanochemistry and polymers are something far more than just amazing, you can design the type of properties you want to see in your material… from strength of grapheme , to flexibility of polyurethane, to even the thermal insulation of Teflon… anything is possible using Nanochemistry. although the most utility field of Nano chemistry is micro and Nanochips , but these could even be modified to manufacturing of high rated level technology, from weapons to buildings to auto mobiles… anything! Which you ever imagine. A fridge is already available with an on-board computer, allowing it to know its contents, order food when you run out and even suggest suitable recipes, before settin...
