Nanomaterials are unique as unlike crystals in normal metals
they are nanosize (very small). Nanomaterials have nanosized
crystals in layers, which allow them to be bent and hammered into
shapes- e.g. hip replacements.
You can remember this unique property as the word "nano" is used
to refer to a 100th of a second, or a millisecond.
Second>Nanosecond.
This will help you remember- Normal Crystal
Metal>Nanomaterial Crystal.
