Nanotechnology In The Environment: Making Sure Wonder Materials Don’t Become Wonder Pollutants (Science Daily) |
As useful as nanotubes may be, the process of making them may have unintentional and potentially harmful impacts on the environment. Carbon nanotubes are 10,000 times thinner than a human hair, yet stronger than steel and more durable than diamonds. They conduct heat and electricity with efficiency that rivals copper wires and silicon chips, with possible uses in everything from concrete and …
