Nanotechnology is typically defined as the understanding and control of matter at dimensions of approximately between 1 and 100 nanometers.

The tremendous advances that have been made in recent years in producing and characterising nano-sized materials has given rise to the field of nanoscience. In simplest terms, it is ‘engineering at a very small scale’.

Nanoscience bridges the gap between research and development and manufacturing leading to the development of new innovative products.

The potential market for nanotechnology enabled goods is enormous. Essentially any product could be enhanced by the use of nanomaterials with the benefits being translated into higher value for the consumer.
