Case studies

We appreciate that companies require specific set-ups to maximise the value of a project. Talk to us to find out how we can support your business, processes and products.

We are world-class experts in nanoscience technology. Our expertise covers research and industrial applications for emerging and mature markets. We are working with global blue chips, local small and medium-sized enterprises, startups and investors, as well as industry and government associations.

Collaboration and engagement between Sydney Nano and industry partners can happen in multiple ways: cooperative research, linkage projects and making use of our core research facilities.

ARC Training Centre for Innovative BioEngineering

Pioneering bioengineering therapies and technologies

An Australian centre for the discovery, development and manufacture of innovative technology at the intersection of biology and engineering.

Fibres and filters that reduce pollution

Addressing toxic materials in the marine food chain

We are developing manufacturing and engineering solutions to manage micro- and nanoplastic pollution through an international consortium, including Parley for Oceans (US), Melbourne Water, South Australian Water and the Environmental Protection Agency.

ARC Linkage project with Dulux Australia

Developing nanoscale additives for functional paint

A long-standing successful collaboration between industry and academia has brought together chemical experts in the area of polymer nanoparticle synthesis and stabilisation with those in the area of surface coatings.

ARC Linkage project with the defence industry

Working with Harris Corp and Defence Science Technology Group

Using the latest technology in nanophotonics, this ARC Linkage project will help industry and government solve complex problems in defence and communications. It also has application for next-generation civilian mobile networks.

Jericho Smart Sensing Laboratory

Air Force engages Sydney Nano to revolutionize sensing capability

Sydney Nano and the Royal Australian Air Force established a scientific collaboration to provide world-leading sensing technology that can monitor the electromagnetic space and underwater domains for Australia’s defence.
