Andrew Poole, on behalf of CSIRO, has been conducting a study of antifouling applications at QCYC since 2013. The study has now been concluded and the test board, previously hidden under the south wharf and inspected regularly by Andrew, has been removed.
Members are encouraged to read Andrew's final report here. (Reports are also available for 2016 and 2017).
It is exciting to think that a new product with some potentially significant commercial applications, Suricle film, has evolved from this study and that this is, at least in part, due to the environment at QCYC.
Sadly Andrew will be leaving CSIRO after 32 years. QCYC sends him best wishes for the future, as well as a warm welcome back whenever he misses his old 'office'.
