Iran-Made Nano-Based UPVC Windows Optimize Energy Consumption
Adding nanoparticles to the UPVC used in the product has increased its impact resistance. These profiles are used in manufacturing various industrial and household products.
UPVC is used in the dental industry, pipe production, as insulation in cabling applications and many other uses. In the construction industry, it is mainly used for producing frames and bases for double-glazed windows.
UPVC stands for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride, a hard plastic material commonly used in windows and doors.
The material is resistant to pollution, moisture, corrosion, and mold. This makes UPVC windows a longer-lasting alternative to timber and aluminum windows.
Iran currently ranks 4th in the world in production of nano-science. This comes as a part of Iran's Nanotechnology Initiative Council’s first development plan, which has sought to advance nano-science in the country.
The second 10-year plan, which started in 2015, seeks to move nano-science from paper to the industry. In the meantime, the Nanotechnology Initiative Council is working on a third plan to trade Iranian nano-products in the global market.
