New nanotech for home laundry exhibited in Beijing

Abstract:
A new nanotechnology for home laundry is going to enter Chinese market. Clothes can remain the feature of stain resistance up to one month after using this liquid product, which does not contain fluorine, so it can be used in home laundry, according to a new tech demonstration held in Beijing Friday.

Michael C. Berg, a senior research scientist of the product from Soane Labs, a U.S. nano technology research center, said at the demonstration that this new product, like fabric softeners, can make clothes waterproof, oil proof and dust proof with special fragrance, and it does not contain any chemical elements that are harmful to the human body.
