Nano Technology and Design- Rita Blaik- Edward Kil

This week in Nanotechnology, we had study the idea of hydrophobic materials. The idea that nature has provided for scientist to be inspired by. This in return has allowed Scientist to study the molecular structures to help them better understand why some materials are hydrophobic. In recent years Scientist have discovered that the idea of hydrophobic qualities and how to incorporate them into the field of nanotechnology. Some inventions such as the Never Wet sprays coats a layer of hydrophobic chemical allows for an object to be waterproof or even dirt proof. The image above is can show an example of these types of sprays. Just apply the spray and get wet. So I thought to myself, about the application of hydrophobic sprays and how I can bring an addition that no one has thought of.  It made me realize that none of these hydrophobic sprays were geared towards human protection. Just clothes, windshield or maybe a phone. My mother is a chef at her own restaura...

This week in Nanotechnology I have learned the process of developing a circuit board. The circuit board is constructed with three layers, Copper, being the most important material within the three layers. Copper is a conductor which acts as a passageway for the electrons. The layers above the coppers helps with the process of masking which aids the masking process for the copper to develop its shape. For those who are familiar with the new development of circuit boards, it is not a surprise that copper is the main source of tracer within a circuit board. Nowadays, the conventional copper trace is around 35um. And anything smaller can cause a lot of problems due to the molecular structure not being able to support the thinness of the copper trace. This made me ask myself a question relating to Nanotechnology. Can nanotechnology be able to solve this problem? If so how?. To tackle my question, I had to surf around the vast knowledge of the internet and gather myself some info...
