University of New South Wales scientists have developed a new carbon-based material that could revolutionize moisture control in applications as diverse as electronics, packaging and air conditioning — and which could even be used to keep footwear fresh. The new super desiccant, made from graphene oxide, significantly outperforms current drying agents, and is twice as…

University of New South Wales scientists have developed a world-first, graphene-based, laboratory-scale filter that can remove more than 99 percent of the ubiquitous natural organic matter left behind during conventional treatment of drinking water. In a research collaboration with Sydney Water, the team has demonstrated the success of the approach in laboratory tests on filtered…
