The Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP) at the Central Mechanical Engineering Research Institute (CMERI) was created in 2005 to address the challenges in the area of advanced materials. The thrust area of work focuses on experimental research and development in nanomaterials processing for different applications. It comprises facilities to synthesize and characterize various functional nanomaterials. Recently, the centre is focused on the development of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC), nanohybrid materials for tissue engineering, structural nanocomposite materials for cutting tools and strategic application, opto-electronic materials for sensor of advanced materials including composites, energy storage and devices, Laser material processing, Fluoride filter for drinking water.
