The nanotechnology sector is a prime example of success in Iran, an arena including expert and program-oriented personnels with significant goals that shines like a jewel in the development and innovation community of the country.With the support of gifted academicians and knowledge-based companies, the nanotechnology sector has indigenized many innovations to resolve the main difficulties of the nation in different areas, consisting of industry.Producing coronavirus diagnostic packages by Iranian knowledge-based business and receiving ask for purchasing the item from around 40 nations are amongst the noteworthy achievements of the nanotechnology sector.ICU ventilators for Covid-19 patients, face masks and laser thermometers, home appliances, vehicles, medicine and medical supplies, fabrics, air purifiers, drivers, power plant filters, oil well drilling equipment, valves and pipeline fittings, water disinfectants, and water resistant finishes are amongst the items that have been produced by domestic nanotechnology companies.The national document on promoting the application of nanotechnology has actually outlined the path to accomplishing the major goals of the development of nanotechnology in the country.According to the file, 12,199 articles by Iranian researchers connected to nanotechnology were indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) in 2021, which was equivalent to 41.5 percent of all posts released in the nanotechnology sector.This share of the nanotechnology short articles positioned Iran fourth in the world in 2020 and 2021.

It is noteworthy that before the facility of the national headquarters for nanotechnology development in 2000, the nation ranked 58th worldwide and 6th in the Middle East with releasing simply eight articles.Iran presently ranks 4th in nanotechnology in the world after the United States, India, and ChinaCurrently, 66 Iranian universities accept trainees in the masters program and 22 universities in the doctoral program in various fields of nanotechnology.The expansion of exports in recent years and the development of bases in China, India, Indonesia, Syria, Turkey, and Iraq have actually provided a platform for the entry of Irans nanotechnology goods, equipment, and services into the world markets.So far, Iranian nanotechnology products have actually been exported to 49 nations from five continents.

The sale of nanotechnology equipment in the past Iranian calendar year (March 2021-March 2022) grew by about 59 percent.Textiles, with an export value of almost 4 million dollars, have one of the most variety in regards to destinations by being exported to more than 20 countries.After fabrics, the most diverse export destinations have actually been nanotechnology equipment.

Nevertheless, in the fields of optoelectronics, cars, oil, and gas, the locations have actually been restricted to one or two countries.On November 28, 2022, President Ebrahim Raisi stated to execute the nationwide file for promoting the application of nanotechnology.Consisting of 7 articles, the ten-year document aims to train human resources and supply facilities for the advancement and commercialization of innovation.

Concern industrial areas are water and environment, energy, farming, health, and construction.In this document, Iran was targeted to be amongst the top 15 nanotechnology nations worldwide and aimed to generate wealth and enhance peoples lives.In order to continue the nanotechnology development, the approaching national document has been compiled with new goals and approaches such as being a reference in science and technology, industrialization, maximum effect of nanotechnology in priority industrial areas, and entry of nano products into the worldwide markets and the promo of peoples lives.By 2033, the advancements of nanotechnology in Iran will enhance the quality of life and the production of wealth.

The country moves towards worldwide authority in science and nanotechnology by producing ingenious items while having a steady location in the market of other countries.
