Funded Activity Summary

Porous and Magnetic Networks: Functional materials by form and design. The importance of obtaining smart materials to meet the increasingly stringent demands of modern technology and society, necessitates a determined effort by the research community. Three examples of such demands are the drive towards a hydrogen-based economy, sequestration technologies and green catalysis. Specifically designed meso- or highly porous materials have a central role to play in these extremely topical societal demands. The inclusion of functionality by design into such materials is central to them fulfilling their considerable potential. By researching novel materials technologies today, we aim to deliver practical solutions to market tomorrow, to the benefit of Australian industry.
