For the last few decades, nanotechnology has immensely contributed, either directly or indirectly, to the advancement of medical science. Since early 1990, after discovering single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes and amendment of the same in the polymer matrix as reinforcing filler, it has invoked much interest in the scientific community. Novation Solutions, LLC, a material science company, has announced the development of carbon nanotube-based silicon rubber that has a wide range of applications in medical science.
Novation Solutions, LLC (NovationSi) has developed PURmix high-consistency rubber (HCR), a novel healthcare compound, using a single-walled carbon nanotube developed by Zeon Corporation.
