- The work resulted in the new strategic business development of the university spin-off company Bfhn Technologies Ltd. (Fengge.gao@ntu.ac.uk, CEO). Following our previous patented work on non-leaching type antimicrobial technology for hard solid materials (GB Patent 2450475; WO Patent 2008/152417), this worked our development into soft materials with targeted marked in artificial skin, wound dressing and cosmetic applications. The results of the work subsequently led to the ISIS neutron and muon beam time award valued £153k to exploit the role of clay nanoparticles in soft matters by investigating hydrogen momentum distribution during clay gelation.
