Chairman's Message

It gives me immense pleasure to learn that Institute of Science &

Technology for Advanced Studies & Research (ISTAR)(managed by Charutar Vidyamandal), Vallabh Vidyanagar is publishing its college magazine "GALAXY" which is to be published on its 18th Annual day celebrations.

ISTAR was established in 1999 and since then it has continued not only in

providing good opportunities through offering novel programmes at PG level in Science and Technology, but also caters to the present need of the industries and R & D sectors. I feel our students of ISTAR must imbibe the spirit of searching mind, critical thinking and innovative ideas. Faculty members of ISTAR shall emphasize on conducting research because it is a great source of knowledge and teaching. I also hope that the faculty members will submit research proposals to the various funding agencies of Government of India.

I congratulate Director, Staff, Students and ISTAR central committee who

have contributed their might putting hard efforts for publishing this magazine "GALAXY 2017".

I CONVEY MY BEST WISHES TO EVERYONE IN THEIR ENDEAVOR. Annual Magazine of

From the Desk of Director Raising and maintaining quality standards in higher education and

preparing the students for the world of tomorrow is indeed a challenging task. The year 2016 – 2017 has been productive and has continued to progress steadily and decisively in all envisaged activities. With support of CVM Management, ISTAR has started M.Sc. Geoinformatics & M.Sc. Mobile Technology & Applications Programs from academic year 2016-17.

Many programs conducted by the institute are specifically designed

and provide in-depth theoretical understanding as well as required hands on experience in excellent labs. The sponsored research and professional quality calibration works carried out by team of eminent faculty of the institute has generated recognition and faith among industries, recruiting agencies and aspiring students. Institute is conscious about the need for growth and sustainability and determined to do better in future.

I am confident that with the support of enlightened management of

CharutarVidyaMandal under the patronage of Dr. C. L. Patel, ISTAR will certainly attain high horizons in the era of knowledge economy in the globalized world.I compliment all who have contributed in publishing magazine of ISTAR “GALAXY 2017”. Dr. P. M. Udani Annual Magazine of

THE NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY 2016 – “FOR THE DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF MOLECULAR MACHINES” THE NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY 2016 – “For the design and synthesis of molecular machines”.; Sandhu Simrankaur Jasbirsingh, Kuddushi Mohammad Muzammil, Industrial Chemistry Sandhu Simrankaur Jasbirsingh, Kuddushi Mohammad Muzammil,Department Department ofofIndustrial Chemistry.

The second step was taken by Sir Fraser Stoddart in 1991, when he developed a rotaxane. He threaded a molecular ring on a thin molecular axle and he observed that the ring was able to move along the axle. Among his developments based on rotaxanes are a molecular lift. A rotaxane is a mechanically interlocked molecular structure consisting of a "dumbbell shaped molecule" which is threaded through a "macrocycle" .

The first step towards a molecular machine was taken by Jean-Pierre Sauvage in 1983, when he succeeded in linking two ring-shaped molecules together to form a chain, called a catenane. Normally, molecules are joined by strong covalent bonds in which the atoms share electrons, but in the chain they were instead linked by a freer mechanical bond. For a machine to be able to perform a task it must consist of parts that can move relative to each other. The two interlocked rings fulfilled exactly this requirement. He used copper to bring together two other molecules then he removed copper once the molecules chain was set. A catenane is a mechanically-interlocked molecular structure consisting of two or more interlocked macrocycles.

4 METHODOLOGIES for the synthesis of MOLECULAR MACHINES: Capping, Clipping, Slipping, Active Template

In 1999, Ben Feringa was the first to develop molecular motor, he used a number of clever tricks to get it to spin in one and the same direction. The molecule was composed of something that can be likened to two small rotor blades, two flat chemical structures that were joined with a double bond between two carbon atoms. A methyl group was attached to each rotor blade; these, and parts of the rotor blade, worked like ratchets that forced the molecule to keep rotating in the same direction.

APPLICATIONS: Chemists hope that one day these mini machines could be developed so they can deliver drugs within the human body directly to cancerous cells or target at specific area of tissue to medicate. Time has clearly shown the revolutionary effect of miniaturizing computer technology, whereas through this we have only seen the initial stages of what could result from the miniaturization of machines.

FLUORO POLYMER IN INDUSTRIAL COATINGS Mr. Jatinkumar A Desai, Ph.D Student, Surface Coating Technology Department

The Fluoro polymer Coating market is estimated to reach $1,534.30 million by 2019, signifying firm annualized growth of 6.36% between 2014 and 2019. Asia-Pacific – The biggest market of Fluor polymer Coating Fluoro polymer coating systems are prepared from fluoro polymer resin such as PTFE, PVDF, FEP, ETFE resin. The coating system consists of fluoro polymer resin along with binder resins, solvent, pigments and additives. The ratio of these components in the system dominates the characteristics of coatings and they are unique and proprietary for each coating manufacturer. Building & Construction Industry – The fastest-growing consumer of fluoro polymer coating PVDF based coating systems are highly durable coating systems extensively used for coating architectural aluminium surfaces as well as post-formed steel sheets (metal coils). PVDF coatings constitute 15.03% of the overall consumption of fluoro polymer coating. PVDF coatings have been widely accepted in building & construction industry because of low maintenance cost, gloss and color retention and stain resistance properties. PVDF coatings also possess excellent coating tensile strength and elongation, which enables them to bent and roll without causing damage to the coating or loss of protection to the metal substrate. Fluoro polymer is a polymer based on fluorine and carbon, consisting of a backbone made up of a strong bond between carbon and fluorine atoms. This thermoset polymer achieves excellent stability due to high electro negativity of fluorine atom. Being chemically inert, coatings formulated using fluoro polymers are widely accepted for a variety of industrial applications. Fluoro polymer coating is a combination of fluoro polymer lubricants and resins. This provides protection from corrosion, chemicals, electricity, and abrasion. Furthermore, fluoro polymer coating possesses low coefficient of friction and high mechanical strength. The presence of highly electronegative fluorine atom imparts a nonsticky feature in fluoro polymer coating. In addition, fluoro polymer coating has excellent durability, high dielectric strength, flame resistance, and is light weight. The properties of fluoro polymer coatings vary with the type of fluoro polymer resins used in formulation; however each coating displays the basic properties of fluoro polymers that is non-stick, anti-friction, wear and abrasion resistance and good dielectric and insulating properties. The various types of resins used in formulating fluoro polymer coating are PTFE, PVDF, FEP, ETFE, PFE, FEVE, ECTFE, etc. The type of coating prepared varies in accordance with the type of substrate to be applied on. Coating formulation also contains other components along with the resin, such as binder resin, solvents, additives and pigments which together define the properties of the coating system. The properties of these coating systems vary widely with the ratio of fluoro polymer resin to the binding resin used, as it imparts the characteristics to the final product. The use of fluoro polymer coating has been increasing over the years due to increase in the demand of coatings that are durable and can operate under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure. China and the U.S. are at forefront of fluoro polymer coating consumption, while Italy, Japan, and the Germany are other key markets for fluoro polymer coating consumption. China is the key market in Asia-Pacific, consuming more than half of the demand for fluoro polymer coating, followed by Japan, South Korea, and India where consumption is growing at a \steadily. Increase in the consumption of fluoro polymer coating for food processing, chemical processing and electrical & electronics has been observed in Asia-Pacific due to continued industrialization and rise in the manufacturing sector of the region. Building & construction is projected to be the fastest-growing end-user segment followed by electrical & electronics between 2014 and 2019. The increasing environmental legislations are slowing the growth of fluoro polymer coating. The use of fluoro polymer coatings is increasing due to demand of durable and high performance coatings throughout the world. Processors, manufacturers and builders alike want to reduce their maintenance cost and increase the life of their equipment or buildings. Moreover, fluoro polymer coatings allow for a better performance of equipment with cheaper investment as against the same operation in processing industries by expensive alloys.

GREEN GASOLINE FUEL FROM PLANTS

Akash Ghadiya, Chintan Bhoraniya, Bilal Agaria, Milansinh Gohil, M.Sc. Organic Chemistry Americans pump on average 18 million gallons of gasoline per hour into their cars, but less than half of it comes from oil produced in the United States. To make up for the difference, United States imports oil from politically unstable regions in the Middle East, Africa, and South America. This new type of gasoline, called green gasoline, would have many advantages. The plants used to produce green gasoline would absorb some of the pollutants. Also, we would not have to worry about running out of fuel because green gasoline is renewable. The plants used to make it can be grown over and over again. There are other plant-derived fuels, or biofuels, such as ethanol, which is produced by the fermentation of plant sugars by yeast, and biodiesel, which is made from vegetable oil or animal fats. But the advantage of green gasoline is that it can directly replace oil-derived gasoline. Annual Magazine of

Energy from plant Carbohydrates, such as glucose, are typically derived from sugarcane or corn. But using these food crops for the production of green gasoline runs the risk of driving up food prices. It would be better to make green gasoline with plant materials that are not used. Current research is looking at agricultural and forestry The plant materials are first placed in a reactor at 500 °C. This breaks down the cellulose and other tough plant parts into smaller molecules, called anhydro sugars. These molecules then go through a porous structure called a zeolite, which is made of aluminium and silica. The pores are designed to be just big enough for the anhydro sugar molecules to enter. “If the size of the pores is too small, the molecules can’t get in,” Huber says. “If they are too big, too many molecules crowd in, and unwanted reactions occur.” This can result in a carbon rich material that clogs up the zeolite. The pores in Huber’s zeolites are about six atoms wide, which is room enough for an anhydro sugar molecule to enter and attach to the surface, where it loses its oxygen and re-forms into a ring-shaped hydrocarbon similar to cyclohexane but with less hydrogen atoms. The full process—from breakdown in the reactor to hydrocarbon formation takes just a few seconds. Other researchers, such as Lanny Schmidt, professor of chemical engineering and materials science, and colleagues at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, are heating plant ingredients to higher temperatures (700 °C–1,000 °C) to produce a gas mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2). These molecules of gas are then reassembled into hydrocarbons, such as octane, with water as a by-product:

The future 8 CO + 17 H2 ➞ C8H18 + 8 H2O All of these processes remain under development. “We are still in the early days of green gasoline,” says Robert Anex, associate professor of agricultural and bio systems engineering at Iowa State University in Ames. So far, there are logistics problems, such as how to collect cornstalks from widely separated farms and bring them to one central facility. But green gasoline holds a lot of promise, and scientists, engineers, and policymakers are now starting to realize it. Says Holmgren, “Energy is the most important challenge facing us today, and chemistry will play a key role in making sure we have an alternative source of energy into the next 100 years.

BULLETPROOF GLASS

Sagar Joshi, Ravi Savaliya, Smit Patel, Jay Mehta Polymer Science & Technology Department Bulletproof glass (also known as ballistic glass, transparent armour, or bullet-resistant glass) is a type of strong but optically transparent material that is particularly resistant to being penetrated when struck. Like any material, however, it is not completely impenetrable. It is usually made from a combination of two or more types of glass, one hard and one soft. The softer layer makes the glass more elastic, so it can flex instead of shatter. The index of refraction for both of the glasses used in the bulletproof layers must be almost the same to keep the glass transparent and allow a clear, undistorted view through the glass. Bulletproof glass varies in thickness from 3⁄4 to 3 1⁄2 inches (19 to 89 mm).Bulletproof glass is used in windows of buildings that require security, such as jewellery stores and embassies, as well as military and private vehicles. Bullet-resistant glass is constructed using layers of laminated glass. The more layers the higher the protection. When a weight reduction is needed 3mm of polycarbonate  (a  thermoplastic) is laminated onto the safe side. This polycarbonate stops the spall. The aim is to make a material with the appearance and clarity of standard glass but with effective protection from small arms. Polycarbonate designs usually consist of products such as Armormax, Makroclear, Cyrolon, Lexan or Tuffak, which are often laminated as the final layer (Glass clad Polycarbonate). The polycarbonate usually has one of two types of coating to resist abrasion: a soft coating that heals after being scratched (such as elastomeric carbon-based polymers) or a hard coating that prevents scratching (such as silicon-based polymers). The plastic in laminate designs also provides resistance to impact from physical assault from blunt and sharp objects. The plastic provides little in the way of bullet-resistance. The glass, which is much harder than plastic, flattens the bullet, and the plastic deforms, with the aim of absorbing the rest of the energy and preventing penetration. The ability of the polycarbonate layer to stop projectiles with varying energy is directly proportional to its thickness, and bulletproof glass of this design may be up to 3.5 inches thick. Laminated glass layers are built from glass sheets bonded together with polyvinyl butyral, polyurethane, Sentryglass or ethylene-vinyl acetate. When treated with chemical processes, the glass becomes much stronger. This design has been in regular use on combat vehicles since World War II. It is typically thick and isAnnual usually extremely heavy. Magazine of

ALZHEIMER’S UNSOLVED MYSTRY

ALZHEIMER’S UNSOLVED MYSTRY -By PARTH BHATT & RAVI VANPARIYA, M. Sc. (OC)

Parth Bhatt & Ravi Vanpariya, M. Sc. (OC)

Alzheimer’s is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior; Symptoms usually develop slowly and get worse over time, becoming severe enough to interfere with daily tasks Let switch over to History: Alios Alzheimer (a German physician) is credited for this renowned work. Her first patient Auguste Deter was observed by Dr. Alzheimer in local asylum in 1906 and followed her care and noted her closely. After her death at 51 he examined her brain tissue and found Plaques & Tangles which are two major prime suspects for damaging brain & its nerve cells. In 1990’s researchers identified Amyloid beta (Aβ or Abeta) protein was a factor in AD (Alzheimer’s disease). Plaques are deposits of a protein fragment called beta-amyloid (BAY-tuh AM-uh-loyd) clump together between spaces of nerve cells. It comes from a larger protein found in the fatty membrane surrounding nerve cells, they are chemically sticky. Tangles are twisted fibers of another tau protein that built up inside cells. Human brain is the most powerful organ, yet weighs only about three pounds. It has a texture similar to firm jelly .It has cerebrum, cerebellum, brain steam as three major part of brain associated with thinking, coordination & balancing. AD leads to nerve cell death and tissue loss throughout the brain. Over time, the brain shrinks dramatically, affecting nearly all its functions and ultimately causes Death Scientists do not know exactly what role plaques and tangles play in AD. Most experts believe they somehow play a critical role in blocking communication among nerve cells and disrupting processes that cells needs to survive. Alzheimer’s is a progressive disease; Length of disease is 3-20 years. Generally women’s are liked to be victim of AD; for easy understanding it is divided into three stages: Earliest Alzheimer’s - Not remembering, episodes of forgetfulness, forgets names of family, or friend’s changes may begin 20 years \Mild to moderate Alzheimer’s stages - Greater difficulty remembering recently learned information, problems with sleep, trouble remembering place. Generally last from 2 - 10 years. Severe Alzheimer’s - Poor ability to think, language problem, more abusive, anxious. May last from 1 - 5 years. There is no single test that can show whether a person has Alzheimer’s, but Brain imaging, MRI, PET, CT, Cerebrospinal fluid can help us in giving blur image of the disease. If u has trouble with memory does not mean you have Alzheimer’s Currently, there is no cure for Alzheimer’s, but drug and non-drug treatments may help with both cognitive and behavioral symptoms. Researchers are looking for new treatments to alter the course of the disease and improve the quality of life for people with AD. Around 35 million people worldwide are suffering with increasing tendency of AD. Since 1907 satisfying therapies and prevention are not available till now, due to lack of awareness and people and generally people link it with aging but it is not so. Research has only identified the major pathological hallmarks that are found in the brain of AD patients. About 40 identified amyloid- β protein. AD is just one of the misfolding protein kinds of disease. This article aims principally to introduce AD, its key players and mechanism of disease and there stages this will help the chemist to be a social as well as economic icon and to be inspiration for million. Basic idea is about awareness and opening the doors for young minds like you who can take a knee interest and save millions of life and find a suitable cure before it affect our country as it is likely to affect India by 2019.

WIRELESS PATIENT’S HEARTBEAT AND TEMPERATURE MONITORING SYSTEM Ankur. A. Patel, Instrumentation & Control Introduction: Recently, the health care sensor are playing a vital role hospital in hospitals. The patient Monitoring system is one of the major improvement because of it’s advanced technology. A wireless patient monitoring system to measure heartbeat and temperature of the patient by using embedded technology is described here. Connecting the temperature sensor and heartbeat sensor simultaneously we can monitor the patient’s condition and ruling out the use of the thermometer and other devices to check the condition of the patient. Implementation: This system is a simple, low-cost microcontroller based heart rate and body temperature measuring device with LCD output. Heart rate of the subject is measured using IRD (Infrared device sensor and the rate is then averaged and displayed on a text based LCD) The device alarm when the heart beat and the body temperature exceed the provided threshold value given for the system is as 20 to 120 pulse per minute for heart beat indication and 18˚Cto 38˚C for temperature. The information of heart rate and the body temperature is then transmitted wirelessly to the doctor through GSM (Global system for mobile communication). The sensor measure the information and transmit it through GSM Modem on the same frequency as on which cell phone works. Block diagram of the system: Advantage:

ROAD SAFETY IN INDIA

Dhaval Patel, MIHSfor the highest fatalities in the world, became yet more dangerous ! Indian Sem-2, roads, which account in 2015 with the number of deaths rising nearly 5% to 1.46 lakh. This translates to 400 deaths a day or one life snuffed out every 3.6 minutes, in what an expert described as a "daily massacre on our roads". The number comes as a wake-up call for the government, whose minister NitinGadkari has set a goal of reducing road fatalities by 50% by 2020.

REAL ESTATE MARKET POST DEMONETIZATION Uday Jain, Sem. IV, Master of Valuation (RE)

Real Estate is largely affected due to demonetization. There is an unspoken rule in the Indian real estate market that every real estate transaction will include a Nominal Government Rate and rest black money. Take an example - real estate transaction is of Rs. 1,00,000/in which Government Nominal Rate is Rs. 40,000/- rest Rs. 60,000 is black money. The elimination of the black money will cause a dip in the real estate value immediately. We should start feeling the boom within the period of 6 months because our properties will be worth just the government rate. Transparent, accountable transactions will be the underlying justification for FDI inflows. The primary sale of the houses will go up with the demonetization move after some time as the banks will lend more money to actual buyers. Banks are expected to lend money at a better rate of interest following an increase in their deposits by demonetization drive. So, instead of lending their money in bonds or fixed deposits, people would prefer to invest in property in the coming days. Moreover the recovery can happen one of two waysIllegal way People will start siphoning the new currencies and the black market will build back to its former glory. Hence, the real estate will go back to the current model. Governmental intervention – If Government comes up with major reforms in real estate laws that closes the loopholes that allow such illegal transactions to become a part of the economy, like re-evaluating the land values or opening up real estate to FDI. These are few examples how it might affect a change, and which should not be taken as the solution. Hence, in short the demonetization has some immediate effects on the real estate market. It will bounce back eventually but whether it will be a legal come back or an illegal come back will depend on how the government will act on it.

RECENT BUDGET PROPOSALS RELATING TO REAL ESTATE SECTOR Krunal D. Khandelwal, Sem II, M.Sc. (Real Estate Valuation) After Agriculture, Real Estate sector is the second largest employment generator in India and it also contributes heavily to the Gross Domestic Product. India’s 5% GDP is contributed by housing sector. Glimpses of some important points affecting the real estate sector in union budget 2017: 1) Major changes are made in the criteria of “Affordable Housing”: • Size of residential unit will be measured as carpet area and not as built up area, this will help covering more projects in the affordable housing • The size limit for the same is set to 30 square metre that is 323 square feet measured as carpet area, earlier it was 30 square metre in built up area. • To be eligible one more criteria was to complete the project in 3 years which is now extended to 5 years. • Allowance of 100% tax deduction is granted on profits from this type of projects 2) Capital Gain Tax: • Exemptions are to be extended in the specific asset transferred by individuals/Hindu undivided family as under Andhra Pradesh capital city land pooling scheme rule, 2015. • Base year for calculating Capital Gain Tax has been shifted to 2001 from 1981. This will ease out the valuation process and also reduce the tax liability, boosting secondary real estate market. 3) Tax Deduced at Source: • TDS @ 5% is payable by individual or undivided family when rent is more than Rs. 50000 per month. 4) Land acquisition Act 2013: • No tax on compensation paid It has been proposed that no text will be levied on acquisition of immovable property under “Right to fair compensation and transparency in land acquisition rehabilitation and resettlement act 2013”. Thus Government of India is seen promising as it is promoting the infrastructure by giving exemptions and deductions in various direct and indirect taxes and making it easy for developers to work Magazine on affordable houses.

DEVELOPMENT OF GIS DATABASE & WEB GIS SERVICES FOR PART OF V. V. NAGAR Henil Upadhyay and Nirali Padhiyar - M.Sc.Geoinformatics Department

Main objective of the project work was to develop GIS database and Web GIS services using open source Geoserver software platform. Data Collection & Generation: Basic GIS database information has been taken from Microsoft Bing Map and Google Map. Various point features like Boys Hostel, Girls Hostel, ATMs, Banks, Food Availability and required reference roads are digitized using ArcGIS software. Attributes data are collected during field visit and six GIS database layers in shape file format of ESRI are generated. GIS Web Services: Web services provide a standard means of interoperating between different software applications, running on a variety of platforms and/or frameworks. So a web service is a mechanism that provides some kind of data and/or functionality over the Web. It provides access to GIS data or functionality over the internet in a standardized way. A web service can be thought of as an Interface, by which your application accesses the data or functionality. About Geoserver: Geoserver is an open-source server providing facilities for GIS database and GIS maps sharing and publishing. Geoserver APIs are written in Java and Java scripting is used for building required GIS Web Services. Designed for interoperability, it allows publishing data from many major spatial data sources using open standards. Geoserver has evolved to become an easy method of connecting existing information to web-based maps taking advantage of Open Layers, Google Maps and Bing Maps. Geoserver is compatible to Open Geospatial Consortium Web Service standards. All GIS layers generated during this project are imported and integrated with Geo Server software platform. This Web GIS service is a pilot study and currently developed only for part of Vidhyanagar. Developed application would help students of vidhyanagar in locating facilities like hostels, ATMs, food joint, colleges etc. Sample screen shots of Geoserver user interface and maps generated by users are presented below.

CROSS PLATEFORM MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT IDE : A REVIEW Ankit Solanki, M.Sc. (Mobile Technology & Applications) Abstract: Mobiles are an integral part of daily life. With time, customers are expecting good and very versatile applications in less time. It is a big challenge to develop high performance mobile applications in this competitive market that would meet the expectation of customers. Mobile operating systems vendors are giving their best available resources for making applications in more convenient ways, although the development of new applications for each mobile operating system in short time is fairly a problem. For businesses and organizations whose customers or followers use different mobile platforms, the requirement for a mobile application that can be installed and run on all major mobile operating systems has become imperative. Cross-platform mobile application development tools contribute in solving this problem largely. This paper presents very popular cross platform tools, which are Xamarin, Appcelerator, Image-1: Mobile App Development under cross platform Sencha, PhoneGap, AppMachine, FeedHenry, Windev, Visual Studio, Game salad, Telerik, Rho Mobile and Appy Pie. One of the main focuses is to provide an overview on the availability of application programming interfaces, programming languages, supported mobile operating systems, licences, and integrated development environments and is aimed at supporting developers to make the right choice withAnnual respect to Magazine their needs/constraints. of

FUTURE OF SMART COATING IN COATING INDUSTRIES: Samruddhi Vyas, Harsh Joshi (4th semester Surface Coating Technology Department) In the new trends of coating industries smart coating is emerging in the opportunities. Smart coating has many answers to unmet demands of different markets like automotive, industrial, marine, construction, aerospace etc. But their usage and manufacturing are the key challenges. So, the smart coatings are the film with predefined properties that makes sense and respond to environment and other stimuli, they are designed to offer functions of coating such as protective and aesthetic as well. This typical coating includes: • Self healing\ • Self cleaning • Microcapsule healing • Anticorrosion coating • Antifogging/de-icing • Antifouling • Electrochromic • Self-assembling Self-cleaning: Silicon nanoparticles with an organic coating are sprayed onto the acrylic film. This creates the super hydroscopic coating with self cleaning properties also it adds high level of toughness .It is claimed as cost effective solution since silicon is not expensive as other materials. Anti-corrosive Graphene-based Coatings: Graphene oxide nanoparticles have beenused in their research to increase protective properties of epoxy-based anti-corrosive coating.  The nanosheets are able to prevent the diffusion of corrosive agents into the coating or to postpone the diffusion for a while due to their very high specific area. Key Players to watch out for: BASF: Been active in smart coating. 3M: Big player in end user segment. DUPont: Has the market power to influence Hence, over one year very interesting developments have been made of smart coating in R&D world.
