An innovative environmentally friendly gelcoating technology for composites for marine and wind-Turbine applications to reduce VOC emissions, processing time and cost (INGECT)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
Gel coats are applied to fibre-reinforced composite materials for aesthetic or protection purposes. Styrene is an essential part of these gelcoats, with ~25% of this released during possessing. These styrene emissions cause irritation and neurological effects as well as possibly being carcinogen. One of the biggest negative effects of styrene is the perceived odour both by the workforce and neighb ...

"Development of novel composite material for safety helmets, boat hulls and lifeboat containers that has self-repairing and visual inspection features" (LAPI)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2010,
Our idea is to develop the novel composite material that contains microencapsulated polymer spheres containing coloured resins. These spheres will provide direct visual inspection possibilities as after impact the surface of the composite will change the colour depending on the severity of the impact. This composite material possesses also self-repairing feature for due to impact these shells cont ...
