Drawing on our extensive expertise in chemical and fibre research, we support the long term competitiveness of Australia's carbon fibre and chemical industries.
Our focus is on advancing carbon fibre manufacture and characterisation, post-harvest cotton research and smart fibre materials.
Our smart and flexible materials are giving way to innovative products with new, advanced functions - from clothing and structures to healthcare goods and industrial processes.
We are collaborating with industry and the research sector to develop carbon fibre and make it cost-effective for Australian companies.
We're working to enhance Australia's cotton fibre quality to ensure the sustainability of our cotton industry.
We provide research and development, consulting, testing and commission processing services to Australian and overseas wool, cotton and technical textiles and advanced materials industries.
Our chemical and biotechnology solutions are supporting long term industry competitiveness by giving way to resource-efficient technologies for health, agriculture, processing and more.
Biotechnology involves using living things to make or change products. Helping establish Australia as a world leader in biotechnology, our innovative solutions benefit agriculture, food, healthcare, environment and chemical industries.
We provide innovative and low cost-of-entry chemical production and engineering solutions for industry, including the latest in flow chemistry technology.
Our RAFT technology is a process for making better polymers with enhanced properties for a uses across areas such as health, electronics, packaging and agriculture.
We conceive, design and apply advanced materials for use across a broad range of industries, boosting productivity, sustainability and environmental outcomes.
We're creating innovative new material-based solutions to reduce carbon emissions, efficiently store and separate gases and improve industry productivity.
We're developing sustainable high-performance coating and adhesion technologies to assist the aerospace, building construction, coating, packaging, energy and mining industries.
We're developing high performance composite materials that are more environmentally-friendly, robust and cost-effective.
We're using virtual technologies to increase our understanding of structure and property relationships at the nanoscale.
