Manufacturing Nanostructured Metallic Materials via 3D Printed Polymers

该项目旨在开发能够快速生产具有可调物理和化学性质的纳米结构聚合物和金属材料的增材制造工艺。该项目期望开发新的知识和化学工艺，允许合理设计功能材料，应用于催化，储能和化学分离。预期的结果包括更节能和环保的功能材料合成方法，以及对纳米结构材料中结构-性能-性能关系的进一步理解。这将为能源、卫生和水领域使用的材料提供具有成本效益的运输途径，从而使澳大利亚受益。

This project aims to develop additive manufacturing processes capable of rapidly producing nanostructured polymer and metallic materials with tuneable physical and chemical properties. This project expects to develop new knowledge and chemical processes, allowing the rational design of functional materials with applications in catalysis, energy storage, and chemical separations. Expected outcomes include more energy efficient and environmentally benign methods for functional materials synthesis, and increased understanding of structure-property-performance relationships in nanostructured materials. This should provide benefits to Australia by providing cost-effective routes for materials used in energy, health, and water.
