Nano Technology from labs to market

Market oriented RD&I

Mackenzie Institute for Research in Graphene and Nanotechnologies

Mackgraphe was stablished in 2012 in São Paulo, Brazil, by Instituto Presbiteriano Mackenzie (IPM), an educational institution founded in 1870. It is a research, development and innovation institute specialized in graphene and two-dimensional materials.

 

Our researchers, mostly linked to Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie, carry out Research and Development (R&D) aimed at innovations focused on market demands. The field of action involves synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials and the development of nanotechnologies applied to various industry segments.

 

Mackgraphe aim is to develop applications in nanotechnology as solutions to the market in collaboration with the industry.
