- Preparation (synthesis, processing, or assembly) of CNPs and CNP constructs for applications in composites
- Surface treatment, functionalization of CNP materials and characterization of the resulting surface/interphase behaviour
- Characterization of intrinsic CNP structure and properties relevant to composites
- Preparation and processing of CNPs composites, by blending, infiltration, or other methods, including subsequent conversion by moulding, stacking, or welding
- Additive manufacturing using CNP components
- Hybrid systems, combining different types of CNPs or other nanofillers
- Hierarchical nanostructured composites, developing architectures at multiple length scales, particularly in conjunction with conventional structural fibre reinforcements
- Characterization of CNP dispersion, distribution, orientation, within the matrix, and the associated influence on the matrix microstructure and properties
- Evaluation of CNP composite properties: mechanical, electrical, thermal, and optical characteristics, and emerging multifunctional performance
- Modelling of CNPs and their composites, both processing and performance
