IMPLEMEMTATION OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN COSMETICS

nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is the study and use of structure between 1nm and 100nm in size. It would take 800nm particles side by side to merge the width of the human hair. Nanotechnology is the study of phenomenon and fine tuning of materials at atomic, molecular, and macro molecular scales where the properties differ significantly from those at larger scale. The present world marketing for the products which are made by the Nano materials expected to reach $3.1trillion by 2017.Nowadays the nanotechnology has been used across various fields of science electronics to medicine and recently they have found the applications in the field of cosmetics called under the name of Nano cosmetics. This widely spreading influence on Nano technology the cosmetic industry is due to the properties attained by the particles at Nano level including transparency, solubility etc .cosmetics are defined as “particles to be applied on the human body are any part of the body for cleansing, beautifying and for attracting. The academic and industrial goals for these technologies are to develop the Nano scale bio molecular substances and their usage levels at high stages. Development’s in the Nano technology will provide lot of opportunities in many fields like in dermatology to develop new varieties of bio compatible and therapeutics, and some delivery systems and more active compounds. These cosmetics can maintain the skin and its surroundings in good conditions. This Nano technology may help scientific communities to find more effective and initiative cosmetics.the efficiency and safety of new Nano materials has to be deeply studied by some ex vivo tests and some laboratory techniques. However cosmetics prepared must be safe and secure for the consumers and they should be properly labled .Companies and the individuals who are the marketing the cosmetics have a legal responsibility for the safety and labeling of the products.
