Application of Nanometer Materials into Badminton Racquet Strings

Abstract:

As an emerging discipline, nanotechnology not only has been applied and popularized rapidly, but also widely used in sports equipments. In order to discuss the application of nanometer materials into the badminton equipments, this study introduces the development of nanotechnology and the manufacturing process of the nanofiber, analyzes the limitations and deficiencies of the traditional badminton racquet strings, and compares the racquet strings which are made from nanofiber with traditional racquet strings; the result shows that the badminton racquet strings which are made from nanofiber have prominent mechanical property and operational performance in comparison with the traditional racquet strings, and have very great application prospects. The application of the badminton racquet strings which are made by nanofiber materials is an inevitable trend.
