Nanoshel Halloysite Clay Nanotubes
Halloysite clay nanotubes are naturally occurring eco-friendly nanotubes with low cost that are harmless to human. Halloysite Nanotubes (HNTs) are unique and versatile nanomaterials composed of double layered aluminosilicate minerals with a predominantly hollow tubular structure in submicron range.
They are nontoxic in nature, have tuneable release rates and fast adsorption rates. These nanotubes have got wide range of applications in anticancer therapy, sustained delivery for certain agents, act as template or nanoreactor for biocatalyst, have found use in personal care and cosmetics and even used as environment protective. In the field of pharmacy and health care, effectiveness of medicine and therapy is very important, failure or drawback in the drug therapy may lead to either ineffectiveness or side effects which hamper human health.
Green nanotechnology aims at developing environment safe and less harmful nano products. Halloysite clay nanotubes, nanocomposites, nano powders, etc are now emerging as trend setters in green nanotechnology. Halloysite nanotubes are eco friendly nanotubes with low cost than carbon nanotubes. In recent years there has been growing concern about the effect of carbon nanotubes on human health and on environment because of their potential toxic nature.
Halloysite nanotubes find numerous commercial applications such as, additives in polymers and plastic, electronic components, drug delivery vehicles, cosmetics and in home and personal care products.
