industrial fields based on domestic technologies and are being exported to 49 countries from five continents.Over the past year (ended March
20), the total sale of Iranian nanoproducts has been equal to 115 trillion rials (nearly $425 million).The expansion of nanotechnology
export programs in recent years and the establishment of bases for exporting nanotechnology products to China, India, Indonesia, Syria,
Turkey, and Iraq have provided the opportunity for the entry of Iranian nanotechnology goods, equipment, and services into global
markets.Some 42 percent of the products in this field are related to construction, more than 17 percent to the field of oil, gas, and
petrochemicals, 13 percent to the field of automobiles, and over 10 percent to the field of optoelectronics.Some 270 companies are active in
the nanotechnology field and it is predicted that their revenue will reach up to 80 trillion rials (nearly $310 million), Vice President for
