Rainbow chocolates, the contribution of nanotechnology to the chocolate industry

So far from NanotechnologyIt has been used in various fields, but now it's time to chocolate has arrived!

Chocolate is going to be colored using nano technology and there is no need to use chemical colors anymore!؟

Scientists from the so-called technology “Structural color” They have revealed that by using structural changes on chocolate, different colors can be created on it, something similar to the skin of some animals, which, due to their special structures, scatter rays with specific wavelengths..

The details of this technology have not been published yet, but according to researchers, the production of rainbows in nature(such as the wings of butterflies or the shell inside an oyster) It is done through nano patterns, patterns that are in the form of lines, holes or plates. According to the researchers, in order to make chocolate with rainbow color, they produced a mold of rainbow chocolate that changed the surface of this mold using electron beam lithography, so that lines with a width of 100 nm are created on the surface. The material of this surface is silicon or glass..

Of course, according to scientists, "chocolate is only a beginning for the production of nano-colors. In this technology, with the combination of nano-structure and micro-structure, unusual materials such as food, fabric, paper and plastic can also be colored, and finally, very exciting products can be introduced to the market.. This type of coloring can cause improvement or Strengthen products will also be.
