Nano 101 Intro to Nano slide presentations
Introduction to nanoscale science and technology slide presentations for educators.
Product
Zoom into a Lotus Leaf video
In this video, learners get an up close look at the tiny nanostructures that give the leaf its unique superhydrophobic behavior.
Product
Exploring Products - Nano Sand
In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with nano sand and regular sand.
Product
Sand, Plants and Pants
In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or substances can change a bigger material’s properties.
Product
Exploring Products - Nano Fabrics
In this activity, learners investigate the hydrophobic properties of pants made from nano fabric and ordinary fabric.
Product
Lotus Leaf Effect
In this activity, learners explore how some leaves are self cleaning and repel water due to their nanoscale features.
Product
Cleaning Oil Spills with Chemistry
In this activity, learners will experiment with different methods of cleaning up a model oil spill.
