About

Our team has developed, scaled up, and validated the production of Ag, Cu, CuO, and Cu₂O nanoparticles at an industrial/pilot level. These nanoparticles are spherical and range from 2 to 4 nm in size. They have been thoroughly characterized by TEM, SEM, DLS, and XRD, showing consistent monodispersity and high purity.

We are currently focusing our studies on assessing their antimicrobial activity, their potential to enhance crop growth, and their impact on seed germination. Our goal is to bring to market products that contribute to sustainable agriculture by increasing efficiency and safety, while significantly reducing bioaccumulation in plants, fruits, and soils.

Our ideal partner should possess strong R&D capabilities in nanoparticle formulation, functionalization, and field trials. In addition, expertise in advanced materials—such as electronic components or nanomedicine—would represent a valuable added strength for the collaboration.

We are open to meetings if you are interested in further information or in exploring innovative ideas to collaborate as part of a consortium.
