| Summary: | This paper focuses on the review of research works contributed by Thai researchers over the last two decades. It surveys research works available in domestically issued journals, which are therefore inaccessible to any international database. Based on our survey, the spectrum of researches involving Particle Technology in Thailand covers three major categories which are 1) Fundamental research in particle synthesis and production, 2) Research and development in particle processing and handling, and 3) Research and development in particle application and utilization.It could clearly be seen that fundamental research works have continuously been conducted while there are increasingly strong policies from governmental and funding agencies to encourage Thai researchers to pay more attention to applied research and development because there have been few successful cases of commercialized research outcomes. This is attributable to imperfect linkages among universities, industries and governmental agencies, which still lack a systemic supporting mechanism from the government, thereby resulting in research projects not amenable to commercialization. |
