Nanopars Espadana aims to meet the needs of the country's petrochemical industry and reduce dependence on foreign products by producing various advanced nanocatalysts for applications in oil, petrochemicals, automotive, pharmaceuticals, food, and metal industries. By leveraging the scientific expertise of young specialists and conducting extensive research, Nanopars Espadana has acquired the necessary technical knowledge to manufacture and produce these nanocatalysts and has brought them to market on a large scale.

The oxychlorination nanocatalysts produced by this company are utilized in the process of converting ethylene to ethylene dichloride in EDC production reactors. This process is essential not only for providing the primary feedstock for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) but also enhances the speed of chemical reactions and improves process efficiency through the use of these nanocatalysts. The produced nanocatalysts feature high specific surface area and suitable porosity, which enhance the quality of refinery products. These characteristics assist petrochemical companies in producing higher-quality products using modern technologies.

In light of escalating sanctions and shortages of imported catalysts, refinery officials have turned to Iranian nanocatalysts. This move not only contributes to independence in the production of strategic nanomaterials but also positively impacts the country's economy. Estimates indicate that approximately 90% of the country's oil requires catalytic processes for refining. Therefore, the production of nanocatalysts has become particularly significant as a strategic and practical product in various industries, including oil and gas, petrochemicals, and steel. With complete technical expertise and a domestic production chain, Nanopars Espadana has made effective strides toward industrial self-sufficiency and has received official quality certifications from various industries.
