The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Functional molecular nanomaterials. The design and construction of advanced nanomaterials is a key step in the push towards more efficient energy systems and smarter technologies. Through the strategic assembly of new classes of molecular nanomaterials, this project will lead to important fundamental advances in nanoscience and will underpin a range of new high-level technologies.
New silane anti-corrosion coatings for steel surfaces. Steel products are a major export for Australia. Orrcon is one of Australia's largest suppliers of steel pipe and tubing. This study of how to stop steel from corroding will produce new breakthroughs in understanding silane chemistry, which is safer, cheaper and more effective in reducing rust, than what is being used today. This new science will benefit Australia's research into corrosion and help us to be more competitive in the export of ....New silane anti-corrosion coatings for steel surfaces.

This new science will benefit Australia's research into corrosion and help us to be more competitive in the export of steel. Our proof of concept studies on the corrosion resistance of new silanes on aerospace aluminium alloys has helped Australian products enter markets where chromium(VI) is now banned. Silicon chemistry is also little researched in Australia and this project will train four new researchers in this field.Read moreRead less
