Relevance of Directa’s nanotechnology

"Significant academic research is leading to discoveries of new materials. However, researchers are not focused on the requirements posed by scalable, cost-effective manufacturing. Robust and reliable production methods - consistently and correctly controlled at the atomic scale - are needed to significantly expand the commercial use of nanomaterials.

Successful implementation of nanotechnology will require a strong commitment to process innovation (manufacturing). The traditional focus on materials science alone will not provide the breakthroughs needed to extract the full benefits of nanotechnology. Research to understand what material structures are required for a specific application must be developed concurrently with new processing capabilities."
