Nanotechnology is now a part of Thai industry

Abstract:
Compared with other countries, nanotechnology in Thailand is still relatively young. Almost four years ago the National Nanotechnology Centre (Nanotec) was set up to pursue the development and applications of the technology to help push some industries as well as public services to a higher level.

At that time, the word nanotechnology was totally alien to ordinary people. Four years later, things seem to have improved a bit.

Now people have become more familiar with the technology as some industries have tried to bring it close to people's daily lives. One of those is the textile industry, which has embraced the technology more than others.
