Fundamental synthesis techniques

The main objective of this program is fundamental research in synthesising new nanomaterials with new properties and functionalities. The research in this program provides new materials for the other programs for further research in application areas.

This program includes researchers from all four institutions and has 10 individual research projects. A large range of new synthesis techniques have been under investigation including chemical reduction, mechanical alloying/ball milling, flame process, chemical deposition, and solid-state processes, which covers the most cutting edge synthesis processes indicating forfront research activities at international level.
