Nano Technology in Architecture: Exploring Possibilities.

Abstract

The nano science and nano-engineering is also referred as nano modification, have come into common usage and describe two main avenues of application of nanotechnology in architectural application. Even though a huge and alluring potential of nanotechnology in architecture and civil engineering has been envisaged and enormous efforts throughout the world are being taken unto use nanotechnology in architectural applications, still few of grey areas need to be explored to make the technology more applicable. This paper presents the developments in the field of nanotechnology and nano science research in architectural development.
