1. Starter: What are they on about?
Pick out keywords/key ideas.

2. “Fabric that keeps clothes dry and stain free?”
Nanotechnology
“Fabric that keeps clothes dry and stain free?”
KEYWORD!!!!!

3. Learning Objectives
Aspire: To describe the properties of Nanotechnological fabrics/microencapsulation and explain how they can be used to enhance design/products.
Challenge: To identify Nanotechnological fabrics/microencapsulation and relate their uses to products.

4. What we’re learning today…
Nanotechnology
Nanoparticles are microscopic particles with specific physical and chemical properties.
Nanoparticles can be incorporated into fabrics to enhance or change their properties:
Dyeability
Tensile strength
Resistance to abrasion
Resistance to flames/heat
Ability to repel water/soil

5. Nanotechnological fabrics
Dyeability
Resistance to heat/flames
Nanotechnological fabrics
Changes a fabric into a technical fabric. Could alter…
Resistance to abrasion
Tensile strength
Ability to repel water/soil (stains)

6. Task: Create a revision guide that covers: What is Nanotechnology?
What is a Nanoparticle?
What does properties does Nanotechnology effect?
Products that contain Nanotechnology.
Invent a product that Nanotechnology would enhance.
For examples of how to set out your revision guide, please see the table at the back…
