Fedotova A.V. Alekseenko, research supervisorPeoples’ Friendship University of RussiaINNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY AS A FACTOR OFCOMPETITIVENESSImproving the competitiveness of the goods is one of the most importantissues of interest to manufacturers now. As we know, the level of competition inthe market increases, it means that manufacturers need to look for new approachesconstantly to improve the quality of the products. Nanotechnology is one of themeans of improving the competitiveness.Innovative activity in enterprises increases the competitiveness ofcompanies. The main competitive advantage of nanotechnology is that it ismicroscopic, its size does not exceed 10 mm. They allow you to make moredurable goods, while increasing their consumer properties and reducing laborcosts, prices, increasing sales.We consider the nanotechnology application for industrial goods - paintworkproducts. The need for them is huge in the domestic market. Moreover, animportant property for the consumer is the material strength and durability. Cars,the walls of our apartments, houses - all of this in the modern world and the cityrequires a coating paints not only for decorative purposes, but also in practice.Personalization of space is becoming more and more popular nowadays.Molecular nanotechnology is actively used in paintwork material industry,which uses special nanobots (nano-assemblers). After learning the innovativetechnologies and production with this technologies emerged and physicochemicaladvantages over other methods. Phishing process (transfer pigments from aqueousto organic status) can reach any modular versatility. Producers can get up to 30different products on the same equipment in this case. The ability to grindcomponents to the state of the primary crystals is important in this production.Known technologies are providing with many hours dissolution of polymers, whilethe use of nanotechnologies reduces this procedure to a few minutes. This increasein speed is due to the use of nano-assemblers. All thermochemical operations withintermediates materials are produced without using solvents. Applicatingnanotechnology can significantly reduce the harm of production and, consequently,improve the safety for humans.Thus, we can distinguish the following improvements in consumer propertiesof coatings based on nanotechnology:- Wood materials covered with this paint are deeply protected from bluemold and rot;- Singularity of these coatings is in it high requirements of the woodprotection from the water, they have an optimum water vapor permeability, so thatthe wood "breathes", that increases the service life of wood and paint to eight yearswithout a change in appearance;- Primers and paints for metal have a corrosion resistant characteristics anddesigned for use in hostile industrial environment;- There is good adhesion in multilayer coatings;- Increases the warranty period;- Gives decorative properties and protection from UV radiation;- Allow to expand the color gamut of coatings.The new materials shortened the air drying to just night and got wash-outresistance. Nanotechnology provides limited absorption when applied to poroussurfaces (plaster, concrete, bricks, paper, wood) of pigment fillers and polymercomponents AD (aqueous dispersion) paints.Manufacturer who uses the technology may get an additional effect.Production with the help molecular technology reduces its power consumption.The energy intensity of production can be reduced by means of innovation from 1ton of products with 190 kW / hour to 61 kW / h. In this case, the profitability ofsuch production increases to 100%. This provides a compact production, that canbe placed on an area of 100 square meters and produce there over 20 kinds ofproducts. Nanomaterials have this cost flow if there is the highest professionalperformance - ie, low price per 1 square meter. A consumer, in turn, receivesdrastically new product with improved properties, more secure, with wide colorgamut and textures for every taste. Yes, nanotech coatings may take a differentprice niche, but the quality justifies the price. Because of sales volume is going upwe can also see the increase of market share of nanotechnology and materials.Nanotechnology is not only quantitative but also a qualitative leap inindustry. Progress in the nanotechnology production gives unique properties to thematerial to solve effectively a wide range of contemporary problems related to theprotection and decoration of metal, plastic, wooden and mineral buildingstructures. It is modern technologies which are able to popularize paintworkmaterials on tool quality-price, thus increase the competitiveness of the goods andwin a new niche in our fast growing market.
