“…This is well-known as nano-effect. In the other word the effect of nanofillers on the polymer properties is different from that of predicted by using the thermodynamical studies for the reduced particle size fillers (Gacitua et al, 2005). Studies and modelings using continuum mechanics reveal that the enhanced properties of nanocomposites are strongly dependent on the particular features of nanofiller system, in particular, its content, aspect ratio and the ratio of filler mechanical properties to those of the matrix (Sheng et al, 2004).…”

Nanobiotecnologia: plataforma tecnológica para biomateriais e aplicação biológica de nanoestruturasAbreviaturas: Nanobiotechnology, biomaterials and biological application of nanostructures Nanobiotecnologia, biomateriais e aplicação biológica de nanoestruturas ResumoA nanotecnologia é um campo da ciência que tem se desenvolvido de maneira impressionante, juntamente com a biotecnologia, misturando o conhecimento da ciência dos materiais e da química com os da biologia. Este artigo de revisão busca unir o conhecimento em biomateriais, como carboidratos e proteínas, com aqueles sobre nanopartículas, sistemas auto-organizados, nanofilmes, nanoemulsões e nanoestruturas, para encapsulação de compostos ativos. O impacto econômico dos produtos de nanotecnologia está na ordem dos trilhões de dólares. A nanobiotecnologia divide uma grande parte desse mercado. Os setores que alcançam benefícios com o desenvolvimento de produtos, técnicas, metodologias e processos em escala nanométrica são: saúde, alimentos e agroindústria. Este representa um campo fértil para aplicações em grande volume. A nanobiotecnologia é uma realidade e o conhecimento de biomateriais, das ciências biológicas e da engenharia, através da união de diferentes grupos de pesquisa em seus campos específicos, permite a concepção de produtos nunca imaginados há alguns anos. Palavras AbstRActNanotechnology is a science field that has been developping amazingly together with the biotechnology, mixing the knowledge of material science and chemistry with the biology. This review article links the know-how of biomaterials in the recent years, like carbohydrates and proteins with those about nananoparticles, self-assembled systems, nanofilms, nanoemulsions and nanoestructures for active compounds for encapsulation. The economical impact of nanotech products is in order of trillions of US dollars, and nanobiotechnology has a great share of this market. The sectors that have benefits with the development of products, technics, methodology and processes on nanometric scale are the health, food and agroindustry. The last one represents a fertile field for applications on a large scale. The nanobiotechnology is a reality and the knowledge of biomateriais, biological sciences and engineering, through the union of different research groups on their specific fields, allows the conception of products never considered many years ago.

“…In the case of filled materials, this value could be associated with www.intechopen.com temporary crosslink between the surface of the particles and the polymer (Gacitua E. et al, 2005). In PE-sC the clay has not any organic species as compatibilizer, so the lower value it might be because no interaction takes place between its surface and the long HDPE chains.…”
