Textile Industry Innovation Through ACENANO Technology
The textile industry is evolving toward the development of fabrics that are stronger, more comfortable, and more functional.
Conventional textile products have limitations such as insufficient durability, moisture absorption, bacterial growth, and inadequate temperature-regulating performance. Our Top-Down Nano technology can process natural materials into uniform nano powders
with particle sizes ranging from 30 to 900nm (D50 and above), without altering their original taste, aroma, or color,
and also provides precise classification technology to sort them into desired particle sizes. Through this, a wide range of applications becomes possible, including waterproof textiles, antibacterial textiles, temperature-regulating functional fabrics, and high-performance apparel.
In particular, we have successfully developed transparent fibers and carbon fibers, opening up new possibilities for ultra-lightweight, ultra-high-strength, and functional textiles. When this technology is applied across various textile applications, it can drive innovative advancements in sportswear, medical textiles, military equipment, and smart clothing.
| Nano Waterproof and Water-Repellent Coating | Existing Problems |
| Conventional waterproof coatings have low breathability, causing discomfort when worn. Water-repellent textiles lose functionality over time, making the effect difficult to maintain. | |
| Effects of Applying Nano Solutions | |
| Nano water-repellent coating forms a transparent waterproof layer on the fabric surface, protecting it from water penetration while maintaining breathability. A nano stain-resistant layer prevents liquids, contaminants, and oils from penetrating the fabric, keeping it clean for a long time. Self-cleaning nano textiles use sunlight to automatically break down stains and pollutants. |
| Antibacterial and Deodorizing Nano Textiles | Existing Problems |
| Sportswear, medical textiles, and everyday clothing absorb sweat and bacteria, making odors occur easily. Conventional antibacterial treatments lose their effectiveness rapidly after washing, resulting in low durability. | |
| Effects of Applying Nano Solutions | |
| Nano silver and nano copper textiles eliminate bacteria and odor-causing microorganisms, maintaining a hygienic condition even after long-term use. Nano moisture-regulating functional textiles quickly evaporate sweat, keeping the skin dry and suppressing bacterial growth. By applying nano textiles that maintain antibacterial functionality even after more than 100 washes, long-term hygienic effects can be provided. |
| Nano Temperature-Regulating Textiles | Existing Problems |
| General textiles cannot adapt to temperature changes and are often suitable for only one season. Conventional thermal insulation materials are bulky and heavy, reducing mobility. | |
| Effects of Applying Nano Solutions | |
| By applying nano phase change materials (Nano-PCM), body temperature can be maintained consistently, providing warmth in cold environments and releasing heat in hot environments. Nano infrared-reflective textiles preserve body heat in cold conditions and prevent overheating in warm conditions. Ultra-lightweight nano insulation textiles provide the same thermal insulation performance at half the thickness of conventional insulation materials. |
| High-Strength Nano Textiles | Existing Problems |
| Conventional textiles are easily worn down by friction and washing, resulting in short replacement cycles. High-strength materials are often heavy and lack flexibility, making them uncomfortable to wear. | |
| Effects of Applying Nano Solutions | |
| By applying carbon nanofibers, textiles more than 10 times stronger than conventional fabrics can be produced, making them ideal for sportswear and protective clothing. Transparent nanofibers are lightweight and highly strong, making them applicable to military bulletproof vests and next-generation fashion materials. Nano-reinforced textiles that can withstand extreme environments can be applied to industrial use, aerospace, mountaineering apparel, and military equipment. |
| Smart Nano Textiles | Existing Problems |
| Conventional smart textiles have bulky sensors and poor wearability, making them difficult to use as everyday clothing. Textiles with embedded electronic sensors are heavy and require batteries, limiting their practicality. | |
| Effects of Applying Nano Solutions | |
| By using nano conductive fibers, fabrics can be developed that perform smart functions without attaching separate sensors. By applying piezoelectric nano materials, smart textiles can generate electricity from body movement and supply energy without batteries. Nano biosensor textiles can measure heart rate, hydration status, and external environments in real time, making them applicable to healthcare and military equipment. |
ACENANO’s Top-Down Nano technology is realizing various innovations in the textile industry, including enhanced waterproof performance, antibacterial and deodorizing functions, temperature regulation, ultra-high-strength fibers, and smart fabrics.
We are developing future-ready textiles that are stronger, cleaner, and smarter.
By forming a nanoparticle protective layer on each fiber strand, it fundamentally blocks the penetration of water and contaminants while maintaining strong waterproof and water-repellent performance semi-permanently even after repeated washing.
By bonding nanoparticles that inhibit the growth of bacteria and microorganisms to fibers, it prevents odor generation and provides a clean and comfortable wearing experience in any environment.
By applying smart materials that absorb or release heat in response to changes in ambient temperature, it regulates body temperature to an optimal level and provides the best climate adaptability regardless of the season.
Through a nano composite structure, weight is reduced far beyond conventional textiles while strength is dramatically enhanced, realizing ultra-strong, lightweight sports and industrial apparel that can withstand extreme environments.
By embedding nano devices that convert body movement or surrounding energy into electricity without a separate battery, it realizes true next-generation wearable devices capable of real-time biosignal monitoring.
