Marat Lerner Ph.D.

Projects under the direction of Dr. Lerner: Development of microbiological filter medium on the basis of nanofibers of metal oxides and water purifiers on the basis of this medium; Development of equipment for the production of nanopowders of inorganic materials. Study of nanopowder properties, exploration of possible applications; and Commercial production of nanopowders of metals, alloys and their compounds.

The main area of specialization is the development of industrial processes for the production of nanopowders of inorganic materials, the study of their properties, development and commercialization of nanopowder-based technologies.

In 2005 the NanoCeram®Super technology was nominated at the 2005 Space Technology Hall of Fame one of the best developments of the year, an example of the use of space technologies for earth applications. The event was held by the Space Foundation program and NASA, USA.

Since 2004 Dr. Lerner has headed the Laboratory of Physicochemistry of Superfine Materials in the Institute of Strength Physics and Materials Science of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ISPMS SBRAS).
