Polymer and Materials Science at The University of Sydney

WELCOME

Polymer Nanostructures Group at The University of Sydney, Australia.

 

Nanoscience defines a multidisciplinary research endeavour aiming at finding new ways to tackle current issues in the fields of sustainable materials, renewable energy and the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The ability to control the synthesis of materials at the nanoscale allows us to produce tailor-made nanomaterials with distinct properties. In our group, we are interested in developing multifunctional polymer materials for energy and health applications. Polymer science provides the ideal playground for creative materials design.

 

We are located in the School of Chemistry in the Key Centre for Polymers and Colloids (KCPC) - a specialised centre for polymer research and training - featuring state-of-the-art facilities for the study of polymers, soft matter and hybrid materials.
