Present research and development is aimed at initiating nanoindustry in Ukraine by launching small companies for the development and commercialization of the pilot- and laboratory scale technologies of nanosize powders of various compounds, as well as production technologies applying these powders in passive electronic components, structural ceramic parts, coatings, laser matrices, implants, and biomedical drug delivery carriers and biomarkers.

The noveltyconcerns: the development of scientific fundamentals of socalled reaction rate-controlled synthesis for various reactions; formation of oxide material nanoparticles during coprecipitation from solutions treated with ultrasound and pulsed magnetic field to solve deagglomeration problem; synthesis of simple and complex multication oxide nanopowders under temperature controlled nanoblast conditions of preliminary developed nanoreactors; mechanochemical synthesis or mechanoactivation followed by low-temperature synthesis of high melting compounds; low-temperature chemical vapor condensation (CVD) and activated intercalation of graphene-like dichalcogenides; synthesis of drug delivery systems, luminescent markers for biology and medicine.

Firstly there have been developed a series of advanced pilot technologies for nanoparticle synthesis and two pilot shops were founded to start large scale production of nanopowders in Ukraine.The start-up «NANOTECHCENTER LLC» has been launched to produce nanopowders.
