Nanotechnology and automotive manufacturing
Abstract:
"Nanotechnology is expected to be a key driver for innovation in the automotive industry," says Wijia Xie, an industry analyst from research and consulting firm Frost & Sullivan.
"The technology has a wide variety of applications in many vehicle components, including the car body, windows, tires, control system, catalytic converter, and engine systems," Xie adds.
"The application of nanotechnology is usually done so as to significantly improve the safety, comfort, efficiency and eco-friendliness of future generation cars."
