Design and Redesign of Sustainable Engineered Nanomaterials
We were delighted to be able to host Professor Chirsty Haynes winner of the RSC Theophilus Redwood Award. Even Richard Feynman would be impressed with how engineered nanoparticles are increasingly being incorporated into devices and products across a variety of commercial sectors. However, this means that engineered nanoscale materials will either intentionally or unintentionally be… Continue reading Design and Redesign of Sustainable Engineered Nanomaterials
