abstract：
product innovations as well as manufacturing innovations are closely related to the materials innovations. together they enable better living – clean air, water and energy, health and wellbeing, smart living and transportation, safety and security, and sustainability. functional nanomaterials are emerging domains of materials innovation. electrospinning has been developed as a viable manufacturing method for producing a range of nanofibers and nanoparticles of polymers, metals, ceramics, carbon, and their combinations. it has also evolved into a 3d printing or additive manufacturing method. functional nanomaterials enable air filtration, water purification, clean energy generation and storage, controlled drug delivery, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, food packaging, high performance apparel, electronic-skin, and light-weight, damage tolerant materials for transportation, electricity transmission, buildings and construction. they also enable self-cleaning, super-hydrophilic, super-hydrophobic, and anti-microbial surfaces. this lecture provides an overview, and discusses emerging opportunities.
