This document provides an overview of applications of nanotechnology and biotechnology in textiles. It discusses how nanotechnology involves engineering on an atomic scale to create small, cheap devices using less raw materials. Nanoparticles between 1-100 nm can be used in textile fibers, yarns, and coatings. Biotechnology uses cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies that improve fiber durability. It can be used to genetically modify microorganisms, replace harsh chemicals with enzymes in processing, and develop diagnostic tools and waste management solutions for the textile industry. Both nanotechnology and biotechnology can enhance natural fibers like cotton and wool.
