Description This project is demonstrating the applicability of computational chemistry coupled with solid state NMR to characterise the speciation and reactivity of bioglass formulations. The project is on-going and the first outcomes have just being reported; further major finding have been observed and these will be reported/published in the near future.
Exploitation Route This project is still on-going and the full potential of this program of work has not been realised as yet. There are many compositional and structural avenues to explore and these will be being investigated through the course of this project.
Sectors Chemicals,Healthcare,Manufacturing, including Industrial Biotechology,Pharmaceuticals and Medical Biotechnology
