Chemical sciences and materials technology
These research topics -although pertaining to many Cnr research groups and Institutes- find a systematic exploitation in the Cnr Department of chemical science and materials technology (Dsctm).
Research topics range from sustainable chemistry to advanced materials and key enabling technologies, as well as nanomedicine. A great importance has also the area of biotechnologies and bio-materials, that situates the Department in an advanced position in the 'living technologies' field, particularly for the development of nanotechnologies bottom-up with an high excellence impact in flexible electronic and optoelectronics, hydrogen technology and fuel cells, sustainable processes with high efficiency and new generation manufacturing.

Cnr at the forefront of environmental sustainability and energy efficiency research with two Horizon Europe Projects
With the two Horizon Europe Projects NET4Air and ECHO, both started on January 1st, 2023, Cnr-Icmate is at the forefront of environmental sustainability and energy efficiency research, embracing goals 7 (affordable clean energy), 11 (sustainable cities and communities) and 13 (climate actions) of the 2030 UN Agenda
4th European Conference on the Chemistry of Two-Dimensional Materials (CHEM2DMAT)
The goal of this conference is to provide a gathering point for the community of researchers working, in Europe and worldwide, on 2D materials, covering all areas related to 2D materials' chemistry for composites, foams and coatings, membranes, (bio-)sensing, catalysis, energy conversion, harvesting and storage, electronics, nanomedicine, biomaterials
Italian national commission for Iupac
The International union of pure and applied chemistry (Iupac) was established in 1919 with the aim of promoting exchanges between chemists from all over the world, also through the creation of a common and standardized language. The National research council (Cnr) represents Italy in Iupac and it is configured as National adhering organization, Nao. The italian Cnr commission for Iupac, established for the first time in 2013, is appointed by the president of the Cnr to carry out the tasks of Nao
Foresight: from society to research
Foresight is a interdepartmental project of the National Research Council of Italy, aimed at elaborating coherent research strategies and addressing socially relevant problems related to environment, health, food, energy, security and transportation
Technology transfer office
Technology transfer represents the Cnr’s second mission, after the scientific research. Cnr-TTO is responsible for all the activities related to TT, namely protection of research results, IPR management and exploitation, promotion and support for spin-off creation, marketing and promotion of research results
