The Impact Of Nanotechnology On Companies by EXIMA: 2:38pm On May 25, 2022
Nanotechnology has been growing in popularity in recent years, mainly because most businesses are incorporating this cutting-edge technology into their daily operations in order to increase efficiency and production levels. As more research and investment are directed toward the field of nanotechnology, it is now necessary for corporations that already employ nanotechnology to review and redefine their business models and practices in order to remain competitive. Let's take a look at some current and future applications for businesses:
Nanomedicine as Part of Drug Development Pipelines
Nanotechnology has the potential to improve drug delivery systems and make them more efficient, resulting in lower costs. In the medical field, the use of nanoparticles to deliver drugs that target certain cells or tumors is being used to halt microbial growth and effectively kill cancer cells.
They use this technology in therapeutics, diagnostics, and medical imaging agents. Currently, nanoparticle-based therapeutics are entering advanced clinical trials.
Nanomaterials Can Be Used to Store Energy
Nanofibers are also commonly used in batteries since they store more ions than conventional materials, which increases the amount of power that can be stored. Let’s use Tesla for example. Tesla's electric car uses a battery that uses nanotechnologies to store more energy than previous models.
Incorporating nanotechnology into batteries provides increased capacity and faster charging times for devices such as phones. This allows Tesla's cars to travel further distances before the battery needs recharging, making it a more viable and environmentally friendly option as an alternative to fossil fuels.
This technology is vital today, as it has been predicted that the world's oil supply will be completely used in about 50 years, which will make it harder to meet our energy needs. As we already know, fuels such as petrol and diesel pollute the atmosphere as well as deplete non-renewable sources of energy.
Individual Nanotechnology Applications for Customers
Nanotechnology has been used in a variety of industries to create cheaper products that can perform the same tasks as their older counterparts, which benefits customers in the long run. It also makes it easier to find replacement parts. This technology can be used in a variety of applications, including food handling, clothing, cosmetics, and even toys.
Nanoscale Materials Are Used in Everyday Products
Many car manufacturers have used nanomaterials in tires. There are even tire manufacturers, such as Fisker Nanotech, that focus on using nanoscale materials to meet the increasing demand for lightweight and eco-friendly products. This is because nanoscale products are often better than traditional materials at achieving certain functions. For example, graphene sheets may replace carbon fibers in tires because of several advantages; these include strength, weight, elasticity, and conductivity.
Automakers can also save an estimated $20 million per year by using Graphene plated engine bearings. The cost savings come from reduced energy consumption and fewer lost engine hours because of engine malfunctions. Integrating nanotech into new materials has many benefits, including lighter and stronger materials, improved aesthetics, and reduced manufacturing costs.
As with most new technologies, the risks of nanotechnology are not immediately obvious and must be researched thoroughly before implementation. However, with further research and proper regulation, the benefits of nanotechnology in end-user products could be immense.
