Can we rethink the way buildings use energy? John Ochsendorf, an Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Architecture at MIT, is working with his students to change the way buildings are made and how they consume energy.
This video was created by students in the CHE230X/ME230X: Nanobiotechnology Laboratory Experience course at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. In this video, students synthesize titanium dioxide nanoparticles using the sol-gel technique. They then demonstrate how to coat porous stainless steel and glass slides with the nanoparticles. This work was funded in part by the National Science Foundation (EEC 0941746).
