nano technology

Major resin mfg’s are now experimenting and using nano technology to strengthen their resins and increase TG.

There are different types of these nanao particles: carbon and metal.

I was even watching “60 Minutes” tonight and nano technology is being used to cure cancer… no lie. So far they have only been able to test it in lab rats but it kills the cancer cells only. This eliminates the need to use radiation or chemotherapy to kill cancer cells. What they do is inject the body/or tumor with nano solution then use radio waves to heat that area of the body, the heat destroys just the cancer cells. Amazing stuff. They say it will be at least 4 years before they test it on humans.

We are using some infusion epoxies formulated with this technology. Have been working with the resin supplier, and they’re modifying resins that would normally be used on pre-pregs and would be to thick for infusion.
They are adding nano modifiers to increase the toughness and temperature resistance of the resin without making it thicker. We had one resin go from an original formulation of about 2000cps, to about 500cps with a service temp of 320*F.

Is that a post cure resin? cool they can thin the resin that way.
