Combining X-ray techniques brings insights  

Scientists at ANSTO together with Lithium Australia Limited (LIT) have developed a world-first technology to extract more lithium from lithium mining waste, in a game-changer for Australian lithium industry. 

Within the bulk structure of such glasses, boron is known to be a key actor, as it exhibits intriguing and composition-dependent changes in coordination state that often drive properties.

Industrial Engagement Manager at ANSTO and Professor in Advanced Structural Materials at the University of Sydney, Anna Paradowska is among the authors who contributed to a 2019 paper that was recently awarded the ASM International ASM Henry Marion Howe Medal in Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A.

Modifications to promising novel non-fullerene small molecule acceptor in organic thin film for solar cells demonstrates improved power conversion efficiency.

Read about an ANSTO scientist and their work to prepare for a school project or interview.

Successful synthesis of nano-material that improves catalytic converter efficiency.

Launch of the second phase of construction of the underground laboratory to detect dark matter.

Report to the independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, and the IAEA

The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.
