Composite materials offer a unique blend of properties that cannot be achieved using individual materials alone. These advanced properties arise from the synergy of the combination of materials.
Our researchers investigate composite materials for healthcare, aerospace, and nuclear engineering industries. In all these industries, the critical advantage of composites lies in tailoring their properties to meet specific requirements. Current research projects investigate composites for improved bioimaging and sensing, solar energy harvesting and ceramic structural properties.
As technology advances, composites will play an increasingly vital role in addressing these industries' unique challenges and demands, ultimately leading to safer, more efficient, and more effective solutions.
