The RAFT/emulsion research project was undertaken as part of a strong collaboration between the Key Centre for Polymer Colloids (University of Sydney), the Cooperative Research Centre for Polymers and CSIRO Molecular Science (Clayton). The bulk of the research work was undertaken on CSIRO premises, with the additional facilities of the Key Centre for Polymer Colloids being utilised where appropriate (e.g. g-radiolysis using the Key Centre's facilities at ANSTO).
