The Institute of Ceramic Technology participates in the Project Nanomec, by which nanoaditivos applied to glaze and paintings will improve the properties of pieces of furniture and products for the habitat against the rayado and impacts. The incorporation of nanocompuestos to the most employed coatings in the sector of the piece of furniture and the habitat, as they are the paintings and glaze them, will endow to the products of these sectors of new properties that will do them more resistant in front of the rayado, abrasions, impacts and other characteristics that improve the adherencia, the elasticity, the shine or the colour, between others. The initiative proposes the study detailed of the effects of the addition of nanocompuestos to glaze them and coatings more employed of the sector of the piece of furniture and the habitat with the aim to confer them high mechanical provision, improving like this the quality of the product and expanding the current uses of the same, as they indicate the researchers of the Technological Institute of the Piece of furniture, Wood, Packaging and Affine, AIDIMA, centre coordinator of the investigation.
