13 Emerging Nanotechnologies And Materials That Will Change The World | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it
From graphene to self-healing materials.

Next-generation materials include super-light materials and active materials that react to changes in their environment and ultimately smart materials that explain how they are doing. Functional materials follow by borrowing ideas from biology to improve performance and add new behaviours. Self-assembling materials are about making large-scale products that are more precise, enabling better properties (strength, tear resistance, conductivity, etc.)
