Integrating spinning disc processing (SDP), which is new to Australia, with advances in magnetic properties of nanoparticles will have wide ranging applications in nanotechnology. The cutting edge research will foster collaboration with industry, and lead to new industries in memory device technology, nano-medicine, and catalysis, through exploiting commercial opportunities. Continuous flow SDP technology in industry has a small footprint and low capital cost outlay. The project will provide excellent research training in a range of scientific skills and in professional development, and will involve overseas PhD exchange programs. The exciting research incorporating nano-toxicology will enhance public opinion towards nanotechnology.Read moreRead less
