CIC nanoGUNE

CIC nanoGUNE is a Research Centre where the generation and transfer of scientific and technological knowledge is one of the driving forces of its activity. To put science at the service of the industry, nanoGUNE offers a bridge between science and industry in which clients can find highly innovative solutions to their problems. NanoGUNE works on the optimisation of processes or material´s properties that can lead to a cost reduction. Some case studies are surface treatments to optimise roughness, metallic or insulating coatings, optimisation of magnetic components and a whole range of physical and chemical characterisation of materials from macro to nanoscale. We also offer a very effective and innovative solution to metal corrosion. Among CIC nanoGUNE´s portfolio, we offer a novel alternative to plastic, with a material based on fibrillar structures of biodegradable natural elements as sugars and proteins that could also be used in active encapsulation and smart packaging.
