Nanotechnology Research – Laboratories

Work in IPPI's 14 research departments include: Composite and adhesives, polyurethane, fibers and nano-polymers, Novel Drug Delivery System, Polymer Science, Polymeric biomaterials, process modeling and control, polymerization engineering, polymerization catalyst, gas conversion, engineering design and construction, petrochemical synthesis.

The Nanotechnology Research Center (NRC) of RIPI was established in 2006 after five years of activity as nanotechnolgy committee. The center provides a framework to ensure the RIPI leadership in nanotechnology that will be essential to improve the petroleum industry. The center's research focus is on carbon nanotubes, nanocomposites, nanocatalysts, nanoparticles, nanocoatings and their applications in the petroleum industry.
