What does nanotechnology mean? Well it involves understanding and working with materials on a level of size where they are billionths of a meter in size. At this size certain materials have very important qualities and can easily penetrate into other materials at a molecular or atomic level. First let’s look at silver this metal has been used by many civilizations for centuries as a method of treating wounds and purifying water. Many cultures in our past including the Greeks and Romans have historical evidence of using silver to help treat wounds and infections. There is even a reference to King Cyrus of Persia in V BC who only drank water stored in silver containers. Many books including ancient Hindu religious books refer to dirty water being cleaned by placing heated silver into it for a short period of time. Burns were also treated with a silver solution and sometimes food was treated with silver to kill bacteria. Pioneers in America were known to put a silver coin, a dollar back then, into milk to preserve it longer before it went bad. Doctors began experimenting with medical uses silver and found various other areas other than wounds where it helped. Ulcers and fistulas that resisted other treatments were often cured quickly by using an application of silver water even ones that had been there for a few years. It was realized that silver not only had an ability to kill bacteria but also on a molecular level penetrated cells and aided regeneration of tissue. In 1920 the US government Food and Drug Administration endorsed the use of silver water in medicine and purification. Samsung has always been at the forefront of new developments in many areas of research and development and has since the 1990s been looking at nanotechnology. Before even thinking about applying it to household appliances the company has for years been using it to advance telecommunications and semiconductors working with the Korean Governments own nanotechnology program. The introduction of silver nanotechnology into household appliances was to introduce it into air conditioning systems, washing machines and refrigerators. Air conditioning with the Silver Nano Health System was developed to kill any airborne bacteria as it passed through the conditioners silver nano coated filter system. This was to ensure a supply of clean sterilized germ free air from outside and also when recirculation of inside air was carried out any bacteria already in the room would be killed. Washing machines were also given the silver nano treatment as they could also be used to kill bacteria on clothes and linen. During the wash silver nanos are released and mix with the clothes attaching themselves to the fabric on a molecular level killing any bacteria that is there or appears after the wash. They are estimated to stay effective at killing bacteria on the clothes for up to 30 days after washing. Hospitals reported these machines as a great way to deal with their mountains of linen which must been really clean and germ free. The refrigerator was given a coating of silver nano over all its internal surfaces which meant that bacteria or mould can have no chance of growing on them. This will result in a safer environment inside your refrigerator as previously these surfaces were a source of germs and possibly food poisoning. Haier refrigerator and samsung refrigerator are among many. To choose the best read users refrigerator reviews.
