Global challenges such as clean energy and water are being met with what it appears to be the constant development of new nanotech-enabled products and processes. This month sees a host of new innovations in batteries and ultracapacitors for electric vehicles, coatings for solar windows and solar cells, and CO2 conversion technology. There have been multi-million dollar investments in companies developing nanotech in these areas recently.
Graphene is seen as a key tech for water filtration and there have been several recent breakthroughs reported. We profile the market along with the burgeoning sector for water resistant electronics. With explosion of the smartphone and wearables market in the last few years, there has been an increasing demand for a waterproof electronics. Most major handheld electronics manufacturers have made their devices water resistant in the last few years and we profile the companies developing waterproof nanocoatings.
