Chemists In Italy Creates Waterproof, Magnetic, Antibacterial Paper Using Nanotechnology

Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) in Genoa, Italy, have discovered a way to make paper, and other fibers, waterproof, magnetic, flourescent, or even antibacterial. Through the use of nanotechnology a standard paper can be made waterproof and magnetic. It involves combining the fiber molecules with a nanoparticle solution, creating a polymer matrix.

Nokia And Cambridge Brings Nanotechnology Based Super-Hydrophobic Phones

Nokia and Cambridge University have been working for few years on Nanotechnology applications for cell phones. Nokia is always desperate to create something different and amazing. After the announcement of much-ballyhooed Morph phone in 2008, Nokia created many innovative mobiles. Now along with Cambridge University and Nanotechnology, Nokia is focusing on waterproof handsets anew. Nokia is using more upgraded materials and technology to create their upcoming waterproof mobile phones.
