Nanotechnology has made a major impact on the global economy by supercharging the semiconductor and artificial intelligent sectors, and driving multi-billion-dollar markets in medicine, energy, and advanced manufacturing. Nano-materials (1 to 100 nanometers, one nanometer is one-billionth of a meter) display unique physical, chemical, and quantum mechanical properties that differ from their bulk-scale counterpart. Incredible amount of research work is done on making, understanding and developing products from nanomaterials. Essentially no work is done on products that can be developed by destroying nanomaterials.

Metallized plastic film has about 2-30 nm thick aluminum layer. We envisioned metallized polyester film as a two-dimensional giant nanostructure and products that can be developed by destroying the nano thick aluminum layer and other nanomaterials. Products based on nano-destruction technology take advantages of a few major rapidly and dramatically changing phenomena; (i) rapid change in many properties as the size of nanostructure is reduced from about 10 nm to 1 nm, (ii) a complete destruction of the nanostructure into another material, where one set of properties disappear and another set of new properties appear and (iii) nano materials are easy to destroy. The exceptional sensitivity and unique properties of products based on nano-destruction technology are primarily attributable to these three phenomena.
