纳米技术及其应用

Nenotechnology and its application

纳米技术是21世纪的关键技术,它带动激励了许多产业,特别对于纺织行业。纳米颗粒包括各种元素和化合物,以二氧化钛纳米颗粒为例,解释了它们有趣的各种表面性能,给纺织品的创新提供了路线。

Nanotechnology is one of the key technologies of the 21st century, and one from which fresh stimuli can be expected, in particular for the textile industry. Every day sees the creation of fascinating new active agents on the basis of microscopically small particles in the size range of the nanometre (=one billionth of a metre) displaying completely new surface properties due to their specific material mix. The multiplicity of the nanoparticles is so great that it is often difficult to gain an overview of the various nano-materials used, their properties and possibilities for textile applications. Accordingly, this contribution provides a brief insight into the state of nanotechnology and-takeing the titanium-dioxide (TiO_2) nanoparticle as an example-explains the route leading to an innovative textile for practical application with interesting new kinds of surface properties.
