In an expansive CXO discussion with siliconindia, Prateek Manjal, CEO, Pika Exports Pvt Ltd shares his industry knowledge on the significance of Nanotechnology & Nanofibers in the Textile industry in India. Let's read through!

Can you elaborate on the use of nanotechnology and nanofibers in textile manufacturing?

Nanotechnology, specifically nanofibers, is a relatively new concept in the market and we are quite knowledgeable about it. Its potential applications and functionalities are vast. For one, products created using nanotechnology can offer UV protection. This means they can shield us from harmful UV radiation. Additionally, they can be integrated into military gear. Nanotechnology exhibits a phenomenon known as the lotus effect, making it resistant to dirt. For instance, if used in fabric, it prevents dirt buildup, offering several benefits such as being eco-friendly and antimicrobial. This means it resists the accumulation of microbes and germs, including fungi and other microorganisms that we cannot see with the naked eye. Its potential and practical applications are extensive, and many industries are well-versed in its possibilities. However, we will also discuss some of its drawbacks shortly.
