The laboratory for synthesis and investigation of nanomaterials is intended to synthesize the nanomaterials by solid-gas and high temperature processes.
 
These Nano powders could be used, for example, to reinforce polymers for UMV (unmanned vehicles) or in artificial human joints as well as for mechanical defects sensors and rechargeable batteries.
 
In addition, the use of these nanoparticles for hydrogen storage will replace gasolines, oils/gases providing renewable energy sources which will reduce the greenhouse carbon dioxide gas in atmosphere.
