Modified cost effective fibre based structures with improved multi-functionality and performance (MODCOMP)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2020,
Current technological demands are increasingly stretching the properties of advanced materials to expand their applications to more severe or extreme conditions, whilst simultaneously seeking cost-effective production processes and final products. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the influence of different surface enhancing and modification techniques on CF-based materials for high value ...

Industrial pilot plant for semisolid process route with eco-compatible feedstock materials (LIFE CRAL)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
Background
Lightweight vehicles have a strategic role to play in EU environmental policy. Lightweight aluminium alloys have widely started to be adopted, the current frontier for light components. Massive and complex-shaped components are produced by cast aluminium, which competes with the heavier cast iron and preferable magnesium alloys, which though mu ...

A novel process for manufacturing complex shaped Fe-Al intermetallic parts resistant to extreme environments (EQUINOX)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,
There is a need to find solutions to replace Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) such as Chromium, Nickel, Molybdenium and Vanadium in high volume end consumer products. Steels and superalloys with considerable amounts of these CRMs are widely used in many industrial applications, particularly under extreme conditions where corrosion and wear resistance are needed. It is generally accepted, that interme ...

a LOW environmental impact BRAke SYStem (LOWBRASYS)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,
Primary particulate matter (PM) consists of chemical components suspended in the atmosphere as aerosols, e.g. as a result of exhaust gaseous and friction processes (e.g. braking). Such particles may potentially contribute to smog events in urban areas and might be responsible of negative effects on the environment (e.g. acid rain acidification, toxic effects on plants and animals) and health (e.g. ...

Cementitious Brake Control (LIFE+ COBRA)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,
Background
Production of fine Particulate Matter (PM) in the road transport sector represents a high risk factor for health. The fine (PM2.5) and ultrafine (PM0.1) particles are particularly hazardous. Despite the efforts invested in reducing GHGs and exhaust emissions, PM limits are widely exceeded across the EU.
Brake systems have only recently been th ...

New cost-effective and sustainable polyethylene based carbon fibres for volume market applications (NEWSPEC)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
NEWSPEC aims at the production of Carbon Fibres (CFs) through very promising low-cost sustainable polyethylene (PE) precursors. PE can be derived from three independent sources: bio-ethanol, synthetic oil and recycled plastics. A main attribute of this project is the use of an available pilot scale facility (HPFC) that allows design and optimization of continuous CF processing and, at a later date ...

50% Reduction of Brake Wear Particulate Matter (REBRAKE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
"Particulates, also known under the name of particulate matter (PM), are fine particles or soot. Particulate matter is frequently classified according to its size, i.e. PM10, PM2.5 and PM0.1 for particulates with an aerodynamic diameter D smaller than, respectively, 10 µm, 2.5 µm and 0.1 µm. PM represent an hazard for human health. Very coarse particles (D > 10 µm) are generally filtered in the no ...

High-frequency ELectro-Magnetic technologies for advanced processing of ceramic matrix composites and graphite expansion (HELM)
Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
"Lightweight ceramics and fibre reinforced ceramic composites, such as non-oxide Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) and Expanded Graphite (EG), represent very promising solutions for high temperature applications in strategic industrial sectors, such as transport and energy. In fact, these materials are one of topical priorities of the European Technology Platform EuMAT and a strategic issue of the ...

Factory ECO-friendly and energy efficient technologies and adaptive autoMATION solutions (FACTORY-ECOMATION)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
The production landscape is changing. Traditionally, energy costs represented a small part of the production expenses, meaning that the design of production facilities usually neglected efficient energy usage in favour of maximization of production throughput; the energy consumption of factories has been always high, but energy cost has increased dramatically in the last decades, pushing industria ...
