materials engineered at the nanometer scale with unique properties
Nanomaterials are materials engineered at the scale of nanometers, which is one-billionth of a meter. These materials often exhibit unique physical and chemical properties due to their extremely small size and high surface area, making them useful in a wide range of applications from medicine to electronics. For example, in the context of hair and alopecia, nanomaterials can be used to create more effective drug delivery systems that target hair follicles directly.
