Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Nanomaterials have a much greater surface area to volume ratio than their conventional forms, which can lead to greater chemical reactivity and affect their strength. Also at the nanoscale, quantum effects can become much more important in determining the material’s properties and characteristics, leading to novel optical, electrical and magnetic behaviours. 6, record 1, English, - nanomaterial

Un nanomatériau est un matériau composé de nanostructures d'une taille comprise entre 1 et 100 nanomètres (ou milliardièmes de mètre). Ces nanostructures peuvent être des nanoparticules, des nanotubes (comme les nanotubes de carbone) [ou] des nanocristaux. Du fait de la petite taille des structures qui les composent, les propriétés des nanomatériaux diffèrent de celles des matériaux ordinaires. La conception de nanomatériaux concerne des applications très diverses. Exemple emblématique : les nanomatériaux à base de nanotubes de carbone, dont on envisage l'utilisation en nanoélectronique (composants), en médecine (transport de médicaments dans l'organisme), en informatique (mémoires d'ordinateurs). On fabrique également toutes sortes de nanomatériaux dits «composites» (association de matériaux a priori non miscibles). Le principe est d'introduire des nanostructures, par exemple des nanoparticules, dans une matrice (métal, matériau organique) pour obtenir des propriétés spécifiques de dureté, de résistance mécanique, de conductivité ou d'isolation électrique. 7, record 1, French, - nanomat%C3%A9riau
