Summary
Dynamic phase behaviour characterisation facility for nanostructured interfaces and solids. This infrastructure will increase our understanding of interfacial phenomena of nanostructured materials over very short periods of time. This new understanding will allow optimisation of the correlation of the chemistry of a material to the properties of that material. The infrastructure will enhance Australia's capabilities in creating new materials relevant to electronics, medicine, the environment and ....Dynamic phase behaviour characterisation facility for nanostructured interfaces and solids.

As the current materials that can be additively processed are still very limited, this project aims to increase the additive manufacturing processability of commercial engineering materials through developing effective and practical grain refinement technology so that more engineering parts can be additively fabricated. The project expects to widen the applications of this advanced manufacturing technology in industry productions. Expected outcomes include commercialisation ready grain refinement technologies and breakthrough fundamental understanding of the physical metallurgy of melt pools. This should enhance Australia’s capability to establish world-leading additive manufacturing activities serving to various other industry sectors. Read moreRead less
