Descripción: | Defence personnel face multiple threats from different quarters, like terrorist groups androgue nations, who own not only advanced lethal weapons but also chemical and biologicalwarfare weapons. The present day protective clothing system used by the defence sector isvulnerable to modern weapons and also have some inherent weaknesses like high cost, bulkinessand discomfort in wearing. Nanotechnology- based materials offer a promising future in this areadue to their extraordinary physical, chemical, mechanical, and electrical properties at nano-level.This paper outlines the various developments related to the application of nanotechnology inproducing lightweight and comfortable protective clothing for the military personnel and alsosome new developments like sensor, energy storage, conductivity, and decontaminant fabrics. |
