Nanomatériau

A nanomatériau is a having material of the particular properties because of its nanometric structure. It is usually resulting from the Nanotechnologie.

Nanomatériaux currently studied or exploited

Nanotube S of Carbon or Boron nitride metal
Nanoparticules: metal spheres of nanometric size. These nano-objects can be synthesized by chemical way (growth) or physics (molecular jets).
Ceramic Nanopoudre of (silicates or oxide of Titanium): obtained by vaporizing metal and/or organic precursors in a flame at very high temperature. These nanopoudres has properties in the surface treatment material (hardening), materials biocompatible (implants Os seux) and conducting polymers in particular.
Nanofibre, in particular of carbon: these materials have properties which interest the field of electric conductivity, the mechanical resistance and the biocompatible implants (artificial muscles). They can be also used to store hydrogen effectively.
Nanofeuille of glass: their use is considered in the field of the optical disks. The density of information could be multiplied by 4 by this process, implementing the oxide deposit of Cobalt on the surface of the disc. Processes implementing chromium, Zirconium and cobalt let hope for densities even more important.
Nanofilm of DNA: these films have filter, exploitable properties in particular in the environmental field.
Nanocristal: for example, artificial Diamond having electric properties making it possible to manufacture new Microprocessor S. the natural crystals, like the Opal or the sapphire are subjected to research.
Nanocomposites: composite materials having properties of hardness and wear resistance.
