Issue 62 of Nanotech magazine continues our analysis of recent nanotech based responses to COVID-19 mitigation. We cover commercial activity in filters, face masks, diagnostics, anti-viral coatings, mask validation tech, biosensors and vaccines.
Also covered is the growing market for nanodiamonds, which find application in personal care products (sunscreens, anti-aging products), biomedicine (drug delivery and therapeutics, anti-virals and anti-bacterials), coatings, composites, electronics, energy storage, lubricants and sensors. We analyse nanodiamonds types, applications and producers.
Also in this month’s issue, latest nanotech products and graphene commercial activities.
