The Centre for Advanced Materials Research (CAMR) at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura aims to become a distinguished research centre and actively contributes towards the advancement of material science through innovative research techniques, unwavering commitment to academic excellence, and industry partnerships.
CAMR conducts interdisciplinary research projects that exceed traditional academic boundaries, reflecting the dynamic and diverse nature of materials science. Our team of distinguished scholars and scientists brings together expertise from various academic disciplines, including material science, chemistry, physics, and biology.
Furthermore, CAMR consists of a well-experienced team of consultant scientists, who excel in a vast array of scientific domains. We provide unique consultation services to industries within Sri Lanka and globally in sectors related to material chemistry-based industries such as latex-based industries, rubber industry, plastic industry, paint and coating industry, textile industry, agrochemical industry, natural product-based industry, graphite industry, as well as in the areas of environmental remediation, development of sensors, and preparation of insect repellant materials.
At CAMR, we foster an intellectual community that thrives on exploring unconventional concepts in order to further their comprehension of material sciences and address significant social issues such as energy efficiency, economic growth, environmental sustainability, and public health and safety. As we embark on this journey of exploration, we invite industries and researchers to join us to pursue scientific excellence and sustainable development initiatives within Sri Lanka.
