Nanomaterials Assessment Tool (NAT)

A Novel Open-Access Framework for performance and sustainability evaluation

About the tool

NAT is an open-access, web-based framework designed to evaluate nanomaterials across multiple dimensions: materials and reagents, sustainability of synthesis, intrinsic properties, and applicability. It guides users through structured questions with scored choices and produces a normalized assessment that supports transparent comparison of performance and sustainability aspects.

This implementation is intended for researchers, educators, and analysts who need a consistent method to document criteria and visualize outcomes without proprietary software lock-in.

Technology

This application is built with:

  • C# and ASP.NET Core (Razor Pages)
  • HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the user interface
  • Bootstrap for layout and responsive design
