Funded Activity Summary

Production of structured designer particles with high encapsulation capacities and efficiencies. This project aims to develop a superior encapsulation technology that is capable of producing particles with precisely controlled physical and chemical properties. The technology has application in a wide range of industries requiring packaging active ingredients into particle form to achieve desirable end-use performances. It has an economic impact of multibillion dollars per annum. In particular, it will facilitate the release of new drugs to the market for the pharmaceutical industry, and increase the range and improve the availability of quality foods for the food industry. This will bring about a healthier life style to the Australian population.
