NANOTUBES NANOPHIL Growing to serve, Serving to grow
BY KETAKI NIKAM GURPREET KAUR PARMAR VISION
To eradicate pollution from India. To
create awareness among people We aim to reduce pollution by 20% next year. Social problem which would be eradicated POLLUTION:- Pollution is one of the major social issue we face. Pollution is the root cause of deadly diseases. Hazardous effluents are emitted by vehicles in air which is destroying human life as well as animal life. MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS MAJOR PROBLEM The harmful gases released by cars contains poisonous substances too. Due to inhalation of such gases there is rapid increase in death rate. What are Carbon Nanotubes? Carbon nanotubes are fullerene-related structures which consist of graphene cylinders closed at either end with caps containing pentagonal rings NANOTUBES
Nanotechnology can improve the performance
and cost of catalysts Catalysts made from nanoparticles have a greater surface area to interact with the reacting chemicals. The larger surface area allows more chemicals to interact with the catalyst simultaneously, which makes the catalyst more effective. HOW IT WORKS?
The basic trends that nanotechnology enables for the
automobile are lighter but stronger materials. Improved engine efficiency and fuel consumption for gasoline-powered cars. Reduced environmental impact from hydrogen and fuel cell-powered cars improved and miniaturized electronic systems better economies. USES Conducting Composites Controlled Drug Delivery/release Artificial muscles Super capacitors Batteries I Field emission flat panel displays Field Effect transistors and Single electron transistors Nano lithography Nano electronics Doping Nano balance Nano tweezers Data storage Magnetic nanotube Nano gear FACTS:-
In today's automobiles, 10-15 per cent of the fuel
consumption is influenced by engine friction due to : The friction loss Nano-coatings applied to mechanical parts. Nano-structured lubricants. The tribological processes at the piston/cylinder wall interfaces take place at the nanoscale. MARKETING
