Workshop 1/ Room 1: Synthesis, chracterisation and properties of gold and silver nanoparticles From the history of metal colloids, through preparative methods, surface functionalisation, properties and applications – Prof. Mathias Brust of Liverpool University and Prof. Luis Marzan of Vigo University will provide a one stop shop for all your metal nanoparticles needs. Prof Mathias Brust, Centre for Nanoscale Science, Liverpool University |
Workshop 4/ Room 1: Dispersion and stablisation of nanoparticles Dr Gul Ozcan-Taskin of BHR Group, Dr Paul Reynolds of the Bristol Colloid Centre and Peter Livesey from Lubrizol Advanced Materials will discuss and assess the forefront of research into the dispersion and stabilisation of nanaoparticles. This approach will highlight critical issues in the processes and chemistry of dispersion and stabilisation. Dr Gul Ozcan-Taskin, BHR Group Dr Paul Reynolds, Bristol Colloid Centre Peter Livesey, Lubrizol Advanced Materials |

Workshop2/ Room 2: Nanomaterials2: Safety, health and the environment Dr Robert Aitken, Director of Strategic Consulting at the IOM will provide an in depth, interactive session on the how nanomaterials fit into the current SHE framework and how they may be affected in the future. Dr Rob Aitken, Director of Strategic Consulting, IOM |
Workshop6/ Room 3: Chracterisation and metrology of nanoparticles Join Elwood Vogt of CEMMNT and leading nanotech service provider Intertek MSG as they present and interactive workshop of characterisation and metrology, As manageable particle sizes diminish, the need for reliable and precise measurement has never been so important, as has the role of measurement in understanding the structure - property relationships required for successful development of commercial materials. Elwood Vogt, CEMMNT Simon Allen, Intertek MSG |
