(PDF, 0.08 MB)
A substitute for metallurgical coal in blast furnace applications without the availability and cost constraints of current products.
Tactile nanowire sensor
(PDF, 0.08 MB)
A sensor that can distinguish between sharp and blunt objects for wearable sensors.
Gel-form graphene
(PDF, 0.12 MB)
A novel method for converting natural graphite into gel-film form graphene-based material. Each graphene sheet is physically separated by an entrapped liquid or through corrugation, whilst maintaining reasonable mechanical strength.
