Monad Nanotech Pvt Ltd
Monad Nanotech is the first Indian company to produce carbon nano materials (CNM) at a commercial level using low cost production technology developed by Prof. Maheswar Sharon’s group at IIT Mumbai, who has two patents and 38 research publications to his credit on carbon nano materials. Prof. Sharon, a pioneer in CNM research in India along with his wife Dr Madhuri Sharon, ex-director - plant biotechnology, Reliance Life Sciences, started Monad Nanotech Pvt Ltd in January 2004. Now it has filed two more patents.
The R&D activities at Monad Nanotech are lead by Prof. Sharon. The team has been working on not only synthesis of carbon nano material but also on their futuristic applications. Prof Sharon was the first scientist to use plant-based precursors for synthesis of CNM, the idea being that plant based precursor unlike petroleum-based precursors could be harvested as and when desired.
Their first attempt was made with camphor, which is synthesized from the resin of pine tree. Now they expanded their choice to various other non-edible oils. They have been able to synthesize almost all forms of carbon nanomaterials, which have been synthesized by conventional route.
Utilizing the rich experience and technolo¬gies developed by Prof Sharon, Monad Nanotech with a small team of 10 scientists had come out with 13 products. The company uses plant-based raw material for the production of various types of CNM rather than expensive fast depleting fossil fuels. Monad Nanotech has been supplying many nano materials to the research organizations in India. The products include MWCNT1-3 nano beads 1-2, nano fibers 1-4, fibrous carbon nano size metals and porous carbon gas diffusion fuel cell electrodes at less price Rs 100-500 /gram based on the purity of the product. The nano materials in the international market, are available at $80 /gram (Rs 3600 / gram taking one $one - Rs 45).
“Being the first generation nanotechnologists we have limitation. But combining research with commercial activities we will grow, inspite of depending on international orders,” said Dr Maduri Sharon, managing director, Monad Nanotech Pvt Ltd.
