Nano and Advanced Materials Institute
Washable Antiviral and Antibacterial Textiles
Coronaviruses are now shown to reside on textiles and garments for more than one day. Textiles can act as the transmission medium of viruses. Antimicrobial fabric treatments that are typically used do not demonstrate virucidal capability and many of those are not durable against multiple laundry cycles. NAMI’s washable antimicrobial textile is the result of surface modification of finished fibers with covalently bonded antimicrobial agents, in contrast to the traditional physical coating on fibers. NAMI’s textile has outstanding virucidal performance against viruses. The finish is durable against multiple laundry cycles, and will not change the color fastness and touch feel of the finished fabric.
Human Centric Indoor Lighting
A human centric lighting (HCL) can improve wellness and productivity of human being by reinforcing circadian rhythm through adjustable lighting effects. Based on energy-saving and environment-friendly LED technology, NAMI has developed a HCL device that can emit different spectra of light. It features innovative phosphor material, dual-channel chip on board (COB) LED device with advanced algorithm and user-friendly mobile interface for light spectrum tuning. By safely controlling the melatonin secretion through mimicking natural light, users can be more energetic during the daytime and sleep better at night. It is an ideal choice for those looking for better quality of living.
NAMI’s Smart Protection Materials Based Impact Absorbing Floor Mat
Energy absorption and impact protection materials can be used as floor mat to reduce personal injuries especially for the elderly and children. Conventional materials such as EVA foam and PE foam have to be thick enough to provide sufficient protection. By leveraging NAMI’s smart protection material technology, impact absorbing floor mat with reduced thickness yet superior impact protection performance has been developed. The material will self-reinforce upon falling and impact to dissipate and transform the impact energy into heat. It also has a closed cell structure with good waterproof performance. Outperforming the conventional products, NAMI’s floor mat is odorless, with excellent slip resistance, low water absorption, long lifetime and good flame retardation.
Smart Pillow with Pressure Sensing and Auto-height Adjustment
Neck discomfort and chronic fatigue are often observed when inappropriate pillow is used during sleeping.
