DigInfo - movie.diginfo.tv Hosokawa Powder Technology Research Institute, a member of the Hosokawa Micron Group, is currently in the process of developing new scalp care using nanotechnology. Skin penetration is achieved using particles with a mean nanosphere diameter of 200nm. The nanopowder contains ingredients essential for scalp care and are delivered deep into the dermis. One application of PLGA (polylactic-co-glycolic acid) powder contains 1.8 trillion nanoparticles. The powder penetrates deep down to the hair papilla. The scalp care cosmetic contains a mixture of 21 different natural oils that act to moisturize the scalp to control dandruff and itching. In addition, this cosmetic contains very little alcohol, and since it does not contain paraben, it is extremely gentle on the scalp. Hosokawa Micron is in the process of developing nanotechnology scalp care for both men and women. |

Morph is a concept demonstrating some of the possibilities nanotechnologies might enable in future communication devices. Morph can sense its environment, is energy harvesting and self cleaning . Morph is a flexible two-piece device that can adapt its shape to different use modes. Nanotechnology enables to have adaptive materials yet rigid forms on demand. It is also featured in the MoMA online exhibition "Design and the Elastic Mind". It has been a collaboration project of Nokia Research Center and Cambridge Nanoscience Center.

Scientists and engineers are collaborating across disciplines to develop and network miniaturized intelligent nanosensors that can rapidly and remotely detect change in their surroundings. These sensors have a wide range of potential applications: environmental, medical, military and transportation. This workshop will focus on revealing the chemistry and physics behind the creation and application of these sensors. Series: "Molecules for the Media" [9/2006] [Science] [Show ID: 11842] |
