To this point, although, the nano market is small potatoes. Estimated sales of buckyballs, nanotubes, and other nanomaterials fluctuate broadly, however a reasonable estimate is likely to be $50 million. Nonetheless, products made partly with nanomaterials were worth $26.5 billion final year, reckons NanoMat, a materials-oriented community of analysis labs and companies primarily based in Karlsruhe, Germany. Current products include chemicals produced with microscopic catalytic particles, solar lotions with invisibly small zinc-oxide flakes to shield against ultraviolet rays, emulsifiers that hold paint from separating, and coatings that make eyeglass lenses more scratch resistant or extend the life of commercial tools.
