The Composites Research Laboratory (COMRESLAB) at the University of Tehran, Faculty of New Science & Technologies (FNST), was initiated in the spring of 2011 to provide an environment for educational, research & development activities in the field of composite materials and structures.

Outstanding developments have been seen over the past few decades in the field of science and technology of Composite Materials. Their unique and multipurpose characteristics have rendered them as a high priority group of candidate materials for several engineering applications in different sectors of industry spanning railroad, road, air and sea transportation, military, aerospace, municipality, energy production and transmission, civil and infra-structures, oil and petroleum, sports and leisure, etc. Furthermore, the development of new manufacturing methods associated with composites has often resulted in more cost-effective and value-added production lines. In particular, emerging nanocomposites in recent years have encouraged researchers to fully understand and improve their thermo-mechanical/electrical/chemical behavior and thereby expand their applications.
