The significance of the nanostructural components on the properties of the nanoengineering materials
Journal Title: Journal of Achievements in Materials and Manufacturing Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 88
Abstract
Purpose: In the paper, the own original achievements and a mature view of the current development of advanced nanotechnology materials are presented. Design/methodology/approach: The paper should be treated as an auto-review of the own research in the area. The paper is preceded by a short historical sketch and the development of the concept and meaning of nanotechnology and nanostructured materials. Respectively, the following issues are described: the nanocomposites containing carbon or halloysite nanotubes, graphene and metallic nanowires, nanostructured coatings and surface zones of engineering materials, a creation of the nanometric components of the structure of massive materials, nanocomposite materials designed mainly for use in regenerative medicine and regenerative dentistry. Practical implications: In final remarks, the attention is paid to applications of nanotechnology in many products sought on the market and improve their properties and applicability.<br/><br/>
