  5. Nanoparticle drug delivery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoparticle_drug_delivery

    Nanoparticle albumin-bound technology utilizes the protein albumin as a carrier for hydrophobic chemotherapy drugs through noncovalent binding. Because albumin is already a natural carrier of hydrophobic particles and is able to transcytose molecules bound to itself, albumin composed nanoparticles have become an effective strategy for the ...

  6. Applications of nanotechnology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_nanotechnology

    Nanotechnology is giving rise to nanographene batteries that can store energy more efficiently and weigh less. [26] Lithium-ion batteries have been the primary battery technology in electronics for the last decade, but the current limits in the technology make it difficult to densify batteries due to the potential dangers of heat and explosion ...

  7. Potential applications of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_applications_of...

    Major obstacles to nanotube-based microelectronics include the absence of technology for mass production, circuit density, positioning of individual electrical contacts, sample purity, [79] control over length, chirality and desired alignment, thermal budget and contact resistance. One of the main challenges was regulating conductivity.

  8. Carbon nanotubes in medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotubes_in_medicine

    Drug delivery is a rapidly growing area that is now taking advantage of nanotube technology. Systems being used currently for drug delivery include dendrimers, polymers, and liposomes, but carbon nanotubes present the opportunity to work with effective structures that have high drug loading capacities and good cell penetration qualities.

  9. Nanomanufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanomanufacturing

    Nanomanufacturing refers to manufacturing processes of objects or material with dimensions between one and one hundred nanometers. [15] These processes results in nanotechnology, extremely small devices, structures, features, and systems that have applications in organic chemistry, molecular biology, aerospace engineering, physics, and beyond.
