Biotechnology in Product Development
Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale, manipulating atoms and molecules that are 80,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair. It has applications in everyday materials and processes, electronics, sustainable energy, environmental remediation, medicine, health, transportation, and cosmetics. In cosmetics, nanotechnology is used in mineral UV filters, nanocapsules, nanosilver and nanogold for antibacterial properties, and buckyballs for free radical scavenging in expensive face creams. Nanoparticles can also detect and help clean environmental contaminants and purify water.

CONCLUSION • Nanotechnology isan innovative science that includes the design, characterization, production and application of structures, devices and systems by controlling shape and size at the nanometer scale. This widespread use of nanoscale materials is due to the fact they obtain newer properties which differ from the large-scale particles. These altered properties include color, transparency, solubility and chemical reactivity, making the nanomaterials attractive to the food, Electronics and Information Technology, Sustainable energy, Environmental remediation, Medical and Health, Transportation, cosmetics, and personal care industries

Editor's Notes
- #3 Nanotechnology is sometimes referred to as a general-purpose technology. That's because in its advanced form it will have significant impact on almost all industries and all areas of society. It will offer better built, longer lasting, cleaner, safer, and smarter products for the home, for communications, for medicine, for transportation, for agriculture, and for industry in general.

- #6 baseball bats, tennis rackets, motorcycle helmets, automobile bumpers, luggage, and power tool housings can make them simultaneously lightweight, stiff, durable, and resilient, degreasers, coatings, films and eye glassesComputers, microchips, TV cell phonesSolar panels, Less pollutantsQuantum dots are semiconducting nanocrystals that can enhance biological imaging for medical diagnosticsNanoscale sensors and devices may provide cost-effective continuous structural monitoring of the condition and performance of bridges, tunnels, rails, parking structures, and pavements over time.
- #7 Their main advantage is that they provide broad UV-protection and do not cause cutaneous adverse health effects.
- #13 Nanostructured solar cells already are cheaper to manufacture and easier to install, since they can use print-like manufacturing processes and can be made in flexible rolls rather than discrete panels. Newer research suggests that future solar converters might even be “paintable.”
- #16 The increase in surface area due to its reduced size may produce an exponential effect leading up to 100x in efficacyOmniyoNano 223 is able to function under the widest range of light sources, actively eliminating all bacteria, viruses, molds and air pollutants.
- #17 How OmniyoNano 223 Helps, Omniyo Nano 223 has the benefit of UV protection of up to 90%. Being able to absorb and scatter UV rays, it protects all surfaces from damage caused by UV light.
- #18 Since TiO2 is a catalyst, by definition, the OmniyoNano TiO2 coating can neither be used up nor worn out. Therefore, it has the unique ability to sustain the photo-oxidation process once applied.
- #20 researchers have discovered unexpected magnetic interactions between ultrasmall specks of rust, which can help remove arsenic or carbon tetrachloride from water they are developing nanostructured filters that can remove virus cells from water; and they are investigating a deionization method using nano-sized fiber electrodes to reduce the cost and energy requirements of removing salts from water.
