Official: Knowledge-Based Companies Turn Sanctions Into Opportunity
SHAHRE-KORD, Iran (Dispatches) – Iran’s vice president for Science and Technology and chairman of the Elite Foundation Sorna Sattari says sanctions are not serious issue for Iran and knowledge-based companies turn them into opportunities.
Speaking on Monday on the sidelines of visit of gamma-ray system project in Shahre- Kord, Sattari pointed out that with good management, sanctions will not have any effect.
"Always sanctions for knowledge-based companies are considered as an opportunity that can transfer the knowledge to the country,” he noted.
Referring to the gamma-ray system as a useful technology, the vice president said, "This is the first time a private sector company has entered a nuclear issue and doing technology transfer with the best quality.”
The official expressed the hope that seven or eight other projects similar to the plan were done by the private sector in the country.
Meanwhile, in same regard, an Iranian knowledge-based company producing electrostatic nanostructured powder coatings has managed to use nanotechnology in its paint and coating products.
The R&D section of the Rangin Nano Nahal company has managed to bring nanotechnology to the paint and coating industry, inventing several types of electrostatic powder coatings that have solved long-running problems in the industry.
Mehdi Rahmani, the CEO, says his company has more than nine patented products in Iran.
"Among the company’s products are anti-bacterial electrostatic powder coatings, which are used for coating medical equipment, washing equipment, household appliances, etc.” he noted.
"Covering the surface of the equipment with this coating will destroy up to 99 percent of microbial contamination and bacteria and fungi,” he went on to say.
