NANOTECHNOLOGY IN ARCHITECTURE: GRAPHENE

Abstract

Nanotechnology has fostered the knowledge of materials at a nanometric scale, both in their behaviour and in their atomic structure, which has led to the improvement of many products and the creation of new ones in almost all areas of science. Moreover, its multidisciplinary nature will enable it to be applied in the construction world. This article presents some of the nanotechnological advances developed in building materials, paying special attention to the improvements that graphene offers in this field, thanks to its magnificent electrical, mechanical, optical, barrier, etc. properties. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator Nanotechnology has favored the knowledge of materials, in terms of both behavior and atomic structure, at the nano-scale. Which has meant improving numerous products and creating new ones in almost all areas of science. In addition its multidisciplinary character will allow to be applied in the field of construction. This article presents some of the nanotechnological advances developed in building materials, paying special attention to the improvements that graphene offers in this field, as a result of its extraordinary electrical, mechanical, optical, barrier, etc. Properties.
