According to Iran Nanotechnology Initiative Council (INIC), Iranian researchers have produced special nanostructured coatings that can be used in aircraft bodies to protect them against heat.
The advantage of these coatings over normal coatings is their ultra light weight. The research has been carried out at the laboratorial scale and the results have applications in aerospace systems and sustainable energies.
Coatings were synthesized in this research by using magnetic nanoporous pigments made of iron oxide, and their application was evaluated in the protection of aircraft bodies by carrying out various tests.
