Using their own specially designed form of graphene, “Graphair,” CSIRO scientists have supercharged water purification, making it simpler, more effective and quicker. The new filtering technique is so effective, water samples from Sydney Harbour were safe to drink after passing through the filter. The breakthrough research was published in Nature Communications. “Almost a third of…

Soybeans Hold the Secret to Stronger Graphene
Graphene is a carbon material that is one atom thick. Its thin composition and high conductivity means it is used in applications ranging from miniaturized electronics to biomedical devices. These properties also enable thinner wire connections; providing extensive benefits for computers, solar panels, batteries, sensors, and other devices. Until now, the high cost of graphene…
Gold Nanoparticles Treat Severe Vision Loss
It’s a thought that would make most people wince — receiving an injection in the eye. Monthly, or even more often. But for those with macular degeneration that’s the reality of trying to treat severe vision loss. Now a team of CSIRO and Chinese researchers have developed a potentially less invasive drug delivery system for…
