For research entities & labs

Procurement Built for Reproducible Science

Universities, national labs, and corporate R&D centres rely on NanoMani for consistent, specification-rich nanomaterial sourcing, third-party characterization, and expert consultation — the full research supply chain in one place.

Simple process

How It Works

Getting started on NanoMani takes minutes. Here is exactly what to expect.

  1. 1

    Search by specification, not just name

    Filter by purity grade, particle size distribution, surface chemistry, synthesis method, or CAS number. Find materials that precisely match your experimental requirements without emailing suppliers.

  2. 2

    Download data sheets before ordering

    Access COAs, XRD patterns, TEM images, and technical data sheets directly from product listings. Evaluate suitability for your protocol before committing to a purchase.

  3. 3

    Place institutional orders

    Save multiple shipping addresses for different labs, departments, or buildings within your institution. Your complete order history is available for grant reporting, procurement audits, and reproducibility records.

  4. 4

    Receive materials with full documentation

    Every order is accompanied by a certificate of analysis and relevant compliance documentation. Materials from vetted suppliers with consistent batch specifications support reproducible research.

  5. 5

    Extend with specialist services

    When off-the-shelf products aren't enough, commission custom synthesis, third-party characterization (TEM/SEM/XRD/DLS), or book an R&D consultation with our PhD expert network.

What you get

Built for Research Entities & Labs

Every feature on this platform has been designed around how nanotechnology professionals actually work.

📋

Specification-First Catalogue

Every product listing includes purity grade, particle size distribution, surface functionalization, solvent compatibility, and synthesis method — the data you need for experimental planning.

🧪

Third-Party Characterization Services

Submit samples for TEM, SEM, XRD, DLS, BET, and XPS analysis through our certified partner labs. Results in 3–5 business days. Independent verification suitable for publication.

⚗️

Custom Synthesis on Demand

Commission nanomaterials to your exact specifications — particle size, surface chemistry, doping profile, functionalization. Ideal when catalogue products don't meet research requirements.

📄

Regulatory & Compliance Documentation

Obtain REACH, RoHS, and TSCA compliance documentation for your materials. Essential for grant compliance, publication supplementary data, and institutional health and safety requirements.

🔁

Reproducibility Assurance

Consistent batches from vetted suppliers, documented with COAs, enable you to reproduce your own results and allow others to replicate your work — a cornerstone of scientific credibility.

🏛

Institutional Procurement Support

Multiple saved shipping addresses, complete invoice history, and support for purchase order workflows make NanoMani compatible with institutional procurement processes.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

How do I find materials that match my exact specifications?

Use the advanced search and filter tools on the Products page to narrow by material type, purity grade, particle size range, surface chemistry, and more. Each listing also includes searchable tags and downloadable technical data sheets so you can evaluate suitability before ordering.

Are certificates of analysis provided with every order?

Yes. Sellers on NanoMani are required to provide COAs for their products. These are available for download from the product listing before purchase and are included with every shipment. If batch-specific COAs are required, contact the seller through the platform to confirm availability before ordering.

Can we pay via purchase order (PO)?

NanoMani's standard checkout processes payment via Stripe (card or bank transfer). For institutional procurement requiring PO-based invoicing, contact our support team at support@nanomani.com to discuss available arrangements for your institution.

What characterization techniques are available?

Through NanoMani's Characterization & Testing service, you can access TEM, SEM, HRTEM, XRD, DLS, BET, and XPS analysis via certified partner laboratories. Turnaround is typically 3–5 business days. This service is available both for materials purchased on NanoMani and for samples from other sources.

Can I commission custom nanomaterial synthesis?

Yes. NanoMani's Custom Synthesis service connects you with specialist synthesis labs who can produce nanomaterials to your exact specifications — including specific particle sizes, surface chemistries, doping profiles, and functionalization requirements that are not available in the standard catalogue.

How does NanoMani ensure batch-to-batch consistency?

Seller approval requires demonstrated quality control capability. Each product listing and each batch is documented with a COA. If batch consistency is critical to your research, you can request batch-specific documentation from the seller and specify requirements in your order notes.

How do I manage orders for a large research group?

Your NanoMani account supports multiple saved shipping addresses for different labs, buildings, or departments. Each team member can have their own account, and all orders are tracked individually. Your full order history is accessible for procurement reporting.

Is regulatory documentation available for materials ordered on NanoMani?

Yes. Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are provided for relevant materials. For formal compliance documentation — REACH, RoHS, TSCA, or institutional EHS requirements — NanoMani's Regulatory & Compliance service can prepare and provide the necessary documentation packages.

Can I get characterization done on materials I didn't purchase on NanoMani?

Yes. The Characterization & Testing service accepts samples from any source, not only materials purchased through NanoMani. This is useful when you need independent verification of materials synthesised in-house or obtained from another supplier.

Is there consultation support for formulation or process problems?

Yes. NanoMani's R&D Consultation service connects your lab with PhD-level experts for formulation guidance, process optimisation, scale-up strategy, and troubleshooting. Sessions can be booked through the Services page or by contacting our team directly.
