What is Nanotechnology and What Can It Do?
Nanoparticles have a particle size of just a fraction of the average diameter of a single human hair, which is around 80,000 nanometers, measuring just 1 to 100 nanometers. Their small size gives them desirable properties unique compared to materials on a larger scale- at this size range, the macroscale rules of chemistry and physics do not apply. Carbon nanoparticles, for example, are six times lighter than steel and one hundred times stronger.
