The DIMANT (Design of Innovative MAterials
for New Technologies) research group was DIMANT brings together experts and skills on the
founded in 2013 with the aim of creating science and engineering of several materials and
a synergy between research and teaching, coatings: plastics, ceramics, metals, biomaterials and
pursuing excellence in the first and effectiveness geopolymers. DIMANT also deals with sustainable
in the second, and offering support to regional technologies for synthesis and transformation of
companies operating in the production and materials as well as the surface interactions between
transformation of materials. materials and the environment, including tribological
and corrosion phenomena.
