Nanotechnology Research around the world: Jordan


banner 22022012

The Material Science & Nanotechnology Laboratories at the University of Jordan
The material science and nanotechnology laboratories at Hamdi Mango Center for Scientific Research (HMCSR) incubate research in select projects that have the potential to be applied in Jordanian industry.
The material science and nanotechnology laboratories are divided into three research groups:
(I) The Superconductor Material Research Group: its goal is to produce superconductors from nano sized precursors via the coprecipitation method
(II) The Colloid and Surface Chemistry Research Group: its goals are to study colloidal solutions stability and to use phase science to study associated structure of amphiphilic systems.
(III) The Natural Geomaterials for Construction and Industrial Applications Research Group: its goals are to investigate the Jordanian zeolitic tuff and the mineralogical, chemical characterization and the adsorption capability towards organic and inorganic pollutants,
The laboratories include more than ten researchers coordinated by Prof. Hani N. Khoury. Main research projects currently ongoing are:
• The Effect of Nano-sized Starting Powers on the Physio-chemical Properties of the RE123 Superconducting Ceramics prepared Via Co precipitation method.
Characterization and benefits of the newly explored Jordanian zeolitic tuff from selected localities in northern, central, and southern Jordan and research into their capability for removing pollutants from water.
• Targeted-delivery of macromolecular drugs (Aptamers) to cancer cells
