BEIJING, Aug. 29 (Xinhua) -- China has become a nanotechnology powerhouse, according to a report released at the 7th International Conference on Nanoscience and Technology (ChinaNANO 2017) in Beijing on Tuesday.
China's applied nanoscience research and the industrialization of nanotechnology have been developing steadily Adidas Ultra Boost Pink UK Sale , with the number of nano-related patent applications ranking among the top in the world, said the report.
The report was co-produced by Springer Nature, National Center for Nanoscience and Technology (NCNST), and the National Science Library of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
According to Bai Chunli, president of CAS, China faces new opportunities for nanoscience research and development as it builds the NCNST and globally influential national science centers.
"We will strengthen the strategic landscape and top-down design for developing nanoscience Adidas Ultra Boost Blue UK Sale , which will contribute greatly to the country's economy and society," said Bai.
Nanoscience is the study of the interaction, composition, properties and manufacturing methods of materials at the nanometer scale.
The science encourages integration of many disciplines and has a direct impact on daily work and life because it leads to the discovery of advanced technology.
In 1997, around 13,000 nanoscience-related papers were published worldwide. By 2016 Adidas Ultra Boost Red UK Sale , the number had risen to more than 154,000, the report said.
Over the same period, the number of papers related to nanoscience from China grew from 820 in 1997 to over 52,000 in 2016.
Since 2007, the average compound annual growth rate of China's most cited nanoscience papers was 22 percent -- three times the global rate Adidas Ultra Boost Grey UK Sale , the report stated.
In terms of the number of nano-related patent applications, China has reached 209,344 over the past 20 years, accounting for 45 percent of the world's total.
In 2003, CAS and the Ministry of Education co-established the NCNST. Key to the NCNST's success has been the involvement of three of China's top research institutions -- Tsinghua University, Peking University and CAS Adidas Ultra Boost White UK Sale , said Liu Minghua, director of the NCNST.
Liu said that thanks to robust funding, a growing number of Chinese scientists have been
