Brief description Upgrade of Advanced Materials: Processing, Rheology and Thermal Analysis Facility. Material use is fundamental to all manufacturing operations. The proposed equipment extends the existing capability to explore and characterise the nanomaterials. The smart application of these techniques will significantly enhance manufacturing efficiency, and improve product quality and reliability. The unique national facility proposed in this application will cover primarily advanced material processing, characterisation and completes the analysis capability of what is Australia's foremost material, surface and thermal analysis laboratory. Many new materials require specific processing and analysis methods, which ultimately determines the materials performance. The fully integrated facility will foster substantial industrial collaboration through research activities of truly international standard.\r\n \r\n
