Manufacturing
at the nanoscale involves the industrial application of nanotechnologies.
Nanosize
powder particles (Nanoparticles) are prohibitively expensive to
produce and also tend to form clumps (agglomerates), which creates
a serious technological problem that has impeded the prior application
of Nanoparticles in medicine.
Recently,
advances in physics have allowed scientists to engineer Nanoparticles
and Nanostructures in various fields of science and medicine.
Currently,
the major issue in Nanomanufacturing is credibility. Many companies
have begun to advertise “Nanotechnology” as representative
of their products, when in reality, this is a “false illusion.”
