Steel modeling technique wins nanotechnology Victoria Prize
A team of scientists from BlueScope Steel and RMIT University has won the Nanotechnology Victoria 2005/06 prize for Outstanding Contribution to Industrial Nanotechnology.

Using molecular simulation techniques, the team developed computer based chemical models of the polyester coatings used in Colorbond steel products. These models focused on the interactions between the polyester coatings and dirt and other particles in the environment that can contaminate pre-painted products.

The results of this work will assist the development of surface modifications to keep Colorbond steel clean and to maintain its aesthetic appearance. (photo BlueScope)
