This project aims to develop a holistic understanding of dynamic bond formation within molten metals to unlock the full potential of liquid metal chemistry. The project expects to develop new methodologies required to study the nanoscale chemistry of liquid metals, an emerging class of solvents that could revolutionise modern catalysis, metallurgy and inorganic synthesis. The expected outcomes are an in-depth theoretical understanding of liquid metal chemistry as well as new electron and atomic force microscopy techniques that will shed light on these extraordinary materials. This should benefit future studies of liquid metal chemistry and consequently the development of industrial applications of these unique liquids.
