For the first time, the number of #graphene patents exceeded #nanotubes in 2021! Carbon nanotubes always had the highest number of patents among different #nanomaterials in previous years. The third place belongs to #quantum_dots.
According to the #Statnano #policy document database, the Unites States, Russia, Australia, and Iran possess the highest number of nanotechnology #evaluation_reports.
The global #market of #nanotechnology-enabled #products stood at approximately US$1.6 trillion in 2014. In one estimate, the industry could generate 6 million jobs and account for 10% of global #GDP by 2030.
StatNano's #policy database contains a total of 180 evaluation reports of #nanotechnology from various countries. USA, Russia, Australia, Iran, and the UK possess the highest number of nanotechnology #evaluation reports.
Different types of #gold nanoparticles, including #colloidal_gold, gold thioethylamino hyaluronic acid, and acetyl heptapeptide-9 colloidal gold, have been banned by the #European_Commission for use in #cosmetic products.
The total #market volume of #nano_products made in #Iran in 2020 is estimated at about USD 553 million, which amounts to USD 3 billion dollars once the purchasing power parity (PPP) is accounted for.
The new unclonable, cheap, and invisible RF #NEMS tags provide a unique digital #fingerprint and could become a powerful weapon in the global battle against #counterfeit products, even counterfeit bills.
The new #composite fabric based on metal-organic frameworks (#MOFs) has catalysts present in its cavities that are able to capture and deactivate toxic chemicals, #viruses, and #bacteria.
Using the new #spintronic technology for brain-inspired computing, synaptic interactions between adjacent #neurons could be tuned and they could programmed into mutually different and partially synchronized states.
Binding of multidentate ligands to the surface of lead halide #perovskite #nanocrystals suppresses the formation of surface defects that result in halide segregation, yielding materials with efficient and color-stable red #emission.
#Nanobodies have the potential to be developed into treatment and immunity against #SARS_CoV2 and its novel escape mutant. Thanks to their small size they can bind to the virus in more places than regular #antibodies.
Among the top 25 largest #oil and #gas companies, Baker Hughes, Saudi Aramco, and Halliburton have issued the highest number of #nanotechnology_patents so far.
In Russian Federation, the #RUSNANO School League program is a permanent participant of the NTI #Kruzhok_Movement. The program is one of the key projects for #mentor training.
