Nanotech-The UCSB Nanofabrication Facility

Nanofabric Demonstration

This demonstration is a product of Nanodays and Nise Network (Nisenet.org). Including in your demonstration kit is a guide with directions and information on how nanotechnology is involved.

In this demonstration you have two pairs of mini pants. One pair is made with nanofabric.

Use the dropper bottle to squeeze water onto one pair of pants?

What happens?

Now try dropping some water onto the other pair. Does the same thing happen?

Observe the difference.

What's going on? Check the guide here.
