Disadvantages
– Loss of jobs (in manufacturing, farming, etc.).
– Carbon Nano tubes could cause infection of lungs.
– It has very high initial investment costs along with high manufacturing costs.
– Atomic weapons could be more accessible and destructive.
Future Of Nanotechnology
National Science and Technology Council (USA) claims that:
“Nanotechnology is an enabling technology that will change the nature of almost every human-made object in the next century.”
Conclusion The researchers are optimistic for the products based
upon this technology.
Nanotechnology is slowly but steadily ushering in the new industrial revolution.
Nanotechnology with all its challenges and opportunities will become a part of our future.
