Uses of Nanoparticles

  1. Stronger, lighter building materials

    • New cosmetics (deodorant) as they don't leave white marks on skin
      • Lubricant coatings - reducing friction eg. artificial joints, gears...
        • They're conductors - electrical circuits for computer chips
  2. Industrial catalysts - huge SA to volume ratio

    • Sensors to detect one type of molecule and nothing else (eg. water purity sensors)
      • Delivering drugs right to the cells where they're needed
        • Silver nanoparticles can kill bacteria
