NiCT, Hakuto Jointly Develop Efficient Dendrimer Manufacturing Technique.Tokyo, Japan, Feb 14, 2006 - (JCN JCN Japan Corporate News JCN Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience JCN Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing JCN Journal of Christian Nursing JCN Job Control Number JCN Journal of Child Neurology JCN joint communications network (US DoD) ) - The National Institute of Information and Communications Technology Noun 1. communications technology - the activity of designing and constructing and maintaining communication systems engineering, technology - the practical application of science to commerce or industry (NICT NICT National Incident Coordination Team (EPA) NICT New Information and Communication Technology/Technologies ) has developed a technique for manufacturing dendrimer den·dri·mer n. A polymer in which the atoms are arranged in many branches and subbranches along a central backbone of carbon atoms. Also called cascade molecule. , a kind of high-polymer material, in collaboration with Hakuto. The new technique, which improves the chemical treatment process, can synthesize dendrimer in a shorter period of time and at a lower cost. Specifically, it helps reduce time required for synthesis to 1/10 the time it takes with the conventional method. NICT licenses the relevant techniques to Hakuto. Accordingly, Hakuto plans to develop and introduce a new material to the market. Dendrimer, which is currently used in organic electroluminescence displays, are expected to have a wider range of applications from genetic and bio reagents and molecular sensors to catalytic chemicals and dye-sensitised solar cells. Details of this achievement will be presented at the nano tech 2006 International Nanotechnology Exhibition & Conference to be held at the Tokyo Big Sight Tokyo Big Sight (東京ビッグサイト from February 21.
