Chemistry

Not quite remember

I easily remember

Definition of nanoscience

A study on processing of substances at nanoscale that are between 1 nanometre to 100 nanometres

Definition of nanotechnology

A development of substances or gadgets using the properties of nanoparticles

The example of main material in the field of nanotechnology

Graphene

Applications of nanotechnology

Semiconductors, electronics, agriculture, food, energy and electricity, textile, medical

Physical properties of graphene

Strong, hard, transparent, good conductor of heat and electricity, elastic, very low electrical resistance, impermeable

Chemical properties of graphene

Graphene sheets burn at a lower temperature than graphite, the most reactive carbon allotrope

The term ‘nanotechnology’

Was first coined by Professor Norio Taniguchi in 1974

NanoMalaysia

Is a company incorporated under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation for the development in the field of nanotechnology

The usage of nanoparticles

Is able to provide more satisfying outcomes asthese extremely small particles have the ability to easily penetrate the skin even more

The usage of nanoparticles as coating agent

Nanoparticles are also able to coat the surface more evenly, which makes them the best coating agent
