Nano Track - Self cleaning coating on glass with nanotechnology, test with dirty water
Nano Track offers a coating that makes most surfaces become almost maintenance free and easily cleaned. This is because the coating makes the surface water repellent (hydrophobic) with very strong anti-stick properties. Because of this, dirt is picked up by water and then gets carried away. It also means that fouling can #39;t grow on the surface. The coating is weather and UV resistant and it even withstands temperature changes, both plus and minus over time. This probably leads to an extended lifetime of the product. In regards to health, environmenta and safety our coating does not contain any nanoparticles. We use SiO2 liquid and it is called "nano" because of it #39;s thickness which is below 100nm (nm = nanometer). The coating works with small modifications on glass, glazed ceramics, plastic, painted surfaces like automotive paint, precious metals, textile, microporous surfaces and stone (mineral surfaces).

Purdue lands $14.5M to expand nanotechnology portal
Purdue University announced Tuesday that some of its researchers won a five-year, $14.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation to expand the schools online gateway for instruction, research and simulations in nanotechnology.
The nanoHUB.org portal already attracts nearly 250,000 users each year, and it provides instructional segments used by 760 classes at 185 universities around the world.
The new funding will be used to expand nanoHUBs resources for running simulations based on experimental data, for offering courses in nanotechnology to train new workers in the field, and to bring in even more users to participate in the nanoHUB community.
"Thousands of times a day the leading researchers 'come' to Purdue through the globally unique tool of nanoHUB," Purdue President Mitch Daniels said in a prepared statement. "The new NSF investment is an affirmation of the brilliance of nanoHUB's Purdue creators and of its worldwide scientific significance."
Purdues has started to build off of nanoHUB to provide more online instruction to students at other universities, potentially creating a new revenue stream at a time when state support for higher education has not kept pace with inflation.
The National Science Foundation helped launch nanHUB with a $10.5 million grant to Purdue and five other universities in 2002. That money was used to create the Network for Computational Nanotechnology and the nanoHUB content.
The National Science Foundation also gave a $3.5 million grant to the University of Illinois.
The Purdue researchers behind nanoHUB are Gerhard Klimeck, Krishna Madhavan, Michael McLennan, Lynn Zentner and Michael Zentner.

New Nanotechnology Device 4SPIN Generates Interest in Tokyo
Contipro Biotech is presenting brand new device for the production of nanofibers, called 4SPIN. The device is intended for the production of nanofiber layers suitable for use both in industry and medicine.
Tokyo (PRWEB) January 31, 2013
"Contipro is registering its first success. We are a new player in the field of nanotechnology, so although we didnt expect the world to stand agape in awe before us, there is a lot of interest not only among Japanese companies, but also among the Canadians, Taiwanese, Thais and Koreans. Many of them have sought out our stand at this huge exhibition specifically because of the information in the exhibition catalogs about the specifications of our device," says Zuzana Bubnova, Contipro executive director.
"What distinguishes 4SPIN from other devices on the market is its ability to produce nanofibers from a wide range of materials. This device is not limited to one discipline or industrial area. On the one hand, 4SPIN can deal with filtration or environmental applications, and on the other it is perfectly poised to handle nanofiber materials for medicine, electronics, and other areas," says Marek Pokorny, head of the device development team, as he explains the advantages.
"It was not our original intention to develop a new device. But the market lacked equipment which can create perfectly aligned nanofibers from the human's body own substances. And because we wanted to develop new medical applications, we had to create such a device ourselves. Ultimately, we can offer this apparatus to other innovative companies and universities and prepare a pilot version of the machine that will be able to deliver the results of nanofiber research to the market," says Dr Pokorny.
The exhibition in Tokyo will last until tomorrow. According to Contipro representatives its too soon to draw conclusions. Other exhibitions in the US and Germany will give a more rounded idea of the trend, but the future of this new electrospinning device seems to be promising.

Silver Saver – Nanotechnology Keeps the Shine on Silver – Video
Silver Saver - Nanotechnology Keeps the Shine on Silver
Scientists from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the A. James Clark School of Engineering, University of Maryland, have teamed up with conservators from the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Md., to develop and test a new, high-tech way to protect silver art objects and artifacts, using coatings that are mere nanometers thick. The technique, called atomic layer deposition (ALD), will be used to create metal oxide films which, when applied to an artifact, are both transparent and optimized to reduce the rate of silver corrosion. The project is funded by the NSF #39;s SCIART grant program, which supports research in the field of cultural heritage science through the funding of collaborations among conservation experts in museums and scientists in academia. In April 2011 the National Science Foundation #39;s Science Nation web site, which highlights scientific discoveries for the public, debuted this video segment about the project called "Silver Saver," narrated by former CNN chief technology and environment correspondent Miles O #39;Brien.
