High Pressure Research centre UNIPRESS, PAS, Warsaw.
Address:
Sokolowska 29, 01-142 Warsaw, Poland
General Contacts: http://www.unipress.waw.pl/~nano/
Description: This institute has world-class high-pressure equipment for
multidisciplinary research, including nanomaterials. The
laboratory of nanomaterials work on synthesis,
characterisation and sintering of bulk nanometric materials.
They also work on structural characterisation of polycrystalline
nanomaterials from X-ray diffraction and, in co-operation with
other research groups, investigate their basic crystallite sizedependant
properties.
