The followings sections give a brief overview of our current and completed projects.

Current Projects

INFEMA

NANOGAP SUBNM POWDER, S.A. has been awarded with a grant  (INNCORPORA-TU, 2011. Ministry of Science and Innovation) for developing the project "Research and development of new  silver conductive inks based on multidimensional nanodispersions (INFEMA)". This grant will allow hiring a MSc Chemist for the next 3 years to develop this R+D Project. The grants are funded by the European Social Fund.

CLIP

An EU FP7 project which aims to develop low-cost conductive inks for printed electronics. NANOGAP´s involvement is to collaborate with the University of Santiago de Compostela in the development and supply of silver nanoparticle inks. The new inks will contain different size nanoparticles to improve particle packing and lower ink sintering temperature.

FLEXAD

A EUREKA funded project involving a collaboration that is seeking to develop high performance conductive adhesives to replace lead-based solders used in electronics component manufacturing. NANOGAP is developing and supplying conductive silver nanofiber dispersions used as a key component in the new adhesives.

NANOPLATA

FEDER funded project promoted by a company based in Galicia, Spain. NANOGAP supplies silver nanoparticles to include in the formulation of a varnish as a biocide agent for wood-degrading microorganisms.

Completed Projects

FLUOROMAG

An EU FP6 project which aims to integrate the development of bioconjugated noble metal atomic quantum clusters as new highly absorbing, fluorescent and magnetic probes for increased sensitivity in cellular and molecular recognition. The commercial objective is to develop a computer-controlled programmable-array microscope utilizing a liquid crystal on silicon spatial light modulator to achieve multi parameter sensing with high-speed sectioning microscopy. NANOGAP's principal involvement in the project is through the development of the functionalized atomic quantum clusters.
