Summary
Development of rapid-response thermal batteries for the global market. In collaboration with Isothermix, this project aims to develop and commercialize cost-effective, rapid-response thermal batteries to meet the air conditioning peak demand of buildings. This project expects to generate new knowledge about the phase change materials which can be used to store thermal energy across a range of temperatures and the highly thermal conductive materials which can be used as a heat exchanger. Expected ....Development of rapid-response thermal batteries for the global market. In collaboration with Isothermix, this project aims to develop and commercialize cost-effective, rapid-response thermal batteries to meet the air conditioning peak demand of buildings. This project expects to generate new knowledge about the phase change materials which can be used to store thermal energy across a range of temperatures and the highly thermal conductive materials which can be used as a heat exchanger. Expected outcomes include the development of rapid response thermal batteries which can cool buildings across a range of temperatures and site conditions. This should provide significant benefits by reducing primary heating and cooling plant capacity and thereby our reliance on fossil fuels.Read moreRead less

Summary
State-of-the-art atomic force microscopy facilities for South Australia. This project aims to transform our national capability in nano-(bio)characterisation by establishing a state-of-the-art atomic force microscopy (AFM) facility in South Australia. The facility will provide unparalleled capabilities not currently available in Australia and will catapult knowledge in multiple fields, from critical minerals and clean energy to mechanobiology. Expected outcomes include more efficient and eco-fri ....State-of-the-art atomic force microscopy facilities for South Australia. This project aims to transform our national capability in nano-(bio)characterisation by establishing a state-of-the-art atomic force microscopy (AFM) facility in South Australia. The facility will provide unparalleled capabilities not currently available in Australia and will catapult knowledge in multiple fields, from critical minerals and clean energy to mechanobiology. Expected outcomes include more efficient and eco-friendly resource recovery and energy production, future foods and cures, and advanced (bio)materials. The project will strengthen and amplify Australia’s capacity and global leadership to translate fundamental nano-scale phenomena and properties into innovative materials, technologies, and processes.Read moreRead less
