Soldiers’ Food and Nanotechnology
Food Preservation & Packaging
Food preservation refers to any one of a number of techniques used to prevent food from spoiling. All foods begin to spoil as soon as they are harvested or slaughtered. Some spoiling is caused by such microorganisms as bacteria and mold. Other spoilage results from chemical changes within the food itself due to natural processes such as enzyme action or oxidation.
Soldier’s food need to be preserved for so many days and for that we need such pouches which are very much effective in preservation
Food Packaging Applications of Nanomaterials: Features & Concerns
Applications FeaturesNanocomposites Incorporating nanomaterials into the
packaging to improve physical performance,Durability, Barrier properties, Biodegradation.
Nano-coatings Incorporating nanomaterials onto the packaging surface (either the inside or the outside surface, or a sandwiched as a layer in a laminate) to improve specially the Barrier Properties.
Surface biocides Incorporating nanomaterials with Antimicrobial properties acting on the Packaging Surface
Active packaging Incorporating nanomaterials with Antimicrobial or other properties (e.g. Antioxidant) with intentional release into- and consequent effect on the packaged food.
Intelligent Packaging Incorporating Nanosensors to monitor and report on the condition of the food.
Nanomaterials for Food Preservation
Nanoclay & Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites: Bottles made with nanocomposites minimize the leakage of carbon dioxide out of the bottle; this increases the shelf life of carbonated beverages without having to use heavier glass bottles or more expensive cans.
Nanocomposites provides: Barrier property enhancement Chemical and thermal stability Flame retardation in combination with FR agents Processing Characteristics Mechanical properties improvement
Increase stiffness without loss of flexibility Increased dimensional stability
Silver Nanoparticles in food storage
Another example is food storage bins with silver nanoparticles embedded in the plastic. The silver nanoparticles kill bacteria from any food previously stored in the bins, minimizing harmful bacteria.
Gelatin, chitosan and silver nanoparticles are used in making the biodegradable film. Gelatin which is a heterogeneous mixture of water soluble proteins is used as a component of biodegradable packaging materials.
Silver nanoparticles are used in the film to enhance its antimicrobial properties, because nanosilver has been widely used as a coating on various substrates to utilise its sterilizing properties.
Application of Nanotechnology in Protective- Gears
Fabrics: An innovative way of incorporating nanomaterials into the fabric which will result in it being cool in summer and warm in winter.
Ballistic vests: Inclusion of nanomaterials (nanosilver) as anti-microbials into the panels of ballistic vests to reduce heat stress problems for an individual soldier. Nanotube fibers are used to make a material seventeen times tougher than the Kevlar. Future developments are to use nanotechnology to create Smart and Interactive Textiles (SMIT) that can sense electrical, thermal, chemical, magnetic, or other stimuli.
Various types of helmets: To fabricate materials incorporating nanomaterials of different types into blends of synthetic and natural fabrics and foams, and to use them inside the helmets to reduce the temperatures within the helmets.
Applications of nanotechnology in Chemical /Gas sensors
Nanomaterials in Soldiers Mask
Poisonous gases were known about for a long time before the First World War but military officers were reluctant to use them as they considered it to be a uncivilized weapon. These gases are very much harmful and soldiers must be protected from inhaling them. For this, they need such masks, which can stop the gas before reaching to their inhaling system.
Nanotechnology can help our soldiers in a very much effective way. There are various nanomaterials based gas sensors which can detect these gases and can filter them out of the mask. The materials used in these sensors are:
Carbon Nanotubes
Graphene
TiO2
WO3
SnO2
CuO

Quantum Dots
(Luminescent inorganic nanocrystals (Q-dots). The emission wavelength is a function of the crystal size - crystals of the same chemistry can have the emission maxima in a wide range. CdTe hydrophilic Q-dots are coated with –COOH groups and can be easily used for labeling purposes for chemical and biological applications. CdSe/ZnS and ZnCdSe/ZnS (core/shell type) Q-dots are hydrophobic and are soluble in most non-polar organic solvents.)
CdTe Quantum Dots, powder, hydrophilic ( from 510nm to 780nm emission wavelength)
Easily forms colloidal solutions in water. Terminated with -COOH group.Ideal for labeling purposes. Coupling with -NH2 groups can be achieved through.EDC-mediated esterefication.
CdSe/ZnS (core/shell) Quantum Dots, powder, hydrophobic ( from 530nm to 650nm emission wavelength)
Highly luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals coated with hydrophobic organic molecules. Readily soluble in hexane, heptane, toluene, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, pyridine. Not soluble in water, alcohols, ethers.

Highly luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals coated with hydrophobic organic molecules. Readily soluble in hexane, heptane, toluene, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, pyridine. Not soluble in water, alcohols, ethers.
Tectomers
(Tectomers are a novel type of self-assembling molecules. The structure of a tectomer represents several oligoglycine units linked to one common center. The pH dependent formation of strong hydrogen bonds between molecules leads to their self assembly into extra-regular 2-D or 3-D layers of monomolecular thickness.10 mg of any tectomer is enough for coating of more than 2 m2 of surface.)
Tectomer 2-tailed, C7H12(-CH2-NH-Gly5)2 * TFA (Purity: > 95%)
Tectomer 3-tailed, CH3C(-CH2-NH-Gly5)3 * TFA
(Purity: > 95%)
Tectomer 4-tailed, C(-CH2-NH-Gly7)4 * TFA

PEG Derivatives
(PEG oligomers are processed into a variety of derivatives. A high purity for intermediates and products is maintained, and our catalogue items have an overall purity exceeding 95%. In comparison to PEG products obtained from polydisperse material, the use of our compounds is therefore more consistent.)
mPEG Thiol (Purity: > 95%. Colorless liquid)

PEG NHS Ester Disulfide (Purity: > 95%. Oily liquid)
Biotin PEG Disulfide (Purity: > 95%. Powder)
Phosphonic Acids Derivatives
Alkylphosphonic acids are widely used for production of nanoparticles such as quantum dots, nano-metals, nano-ceramics. By varying the carbohydral chain length one canchange the particles‘ shape and size. Besides, they can be used for coating of many materials (including nanoparticles) by condensed hydrophobic monolayers.

Nano Silver – in textiles for Garments and Footwear Silver has been used for the treatment of medical
applications for over 100 years due to its natural antibacterial and antifungal properties.
When we perspire, bacteria thrive in the damp fibers and where bacteria thrive, odor thrives too. When Nano Silver contacts with bacteria and fungi, they adversely affect cellular metabolism and inhibit cell growth and they finally kill them to almost 100%.
