Processing and control of novel nanomaterials in packaging, automotive and solar panel processing lines (OptiNanoPro)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2015, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2018,
Nanocomposites are promising for many sectors, as they can make polymers stronger, less water and gas permeable, tune surface properties, add functionalities such as antimicrobial effects. In spite of intensive research activities, significant efforts are still needed to deploy the full potential of nanotechnology in the industry. The main challenge is still obtaining a proper nanostructuring of t ...

A novel and efficient method for the production of polyhydroxyalkanoate polymer-based packaging from olive oil waste water (OLI-PHA)
Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2015,
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), naturally produced polyesters, are gaining attention in the biodegradable polymer market due to their high biodegradability and versatility. They display sufficient functional properties to replace some of the 250 MTs of plastics used worldwide today, especially in the substitution of PET, which is widely used in soft drink bottles to electronics casing. A key challen ...

Forest Resource Sustainability through Bio-Based-Composite Development (FORBIOPLAST)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"The forest biomass represents an abundant, renewable, no-food competition and low cost resource that can play an alternative role to petro-resources. In spite of positive experimental results industrial production and marketing of materials derived from renewable resources are rarely achieved because of high processing costs and low properties of final products usually targeted to single use sect ...

Resource-Efficient Self-Reinforced Plastic Materials and Processing (ESPRIT)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,
The aims of the Esprit project are to reduce the amount of plastic used to make a component by 30% and reduce component weight by 30%, by developing the next generation of lightweight, self-reinforced plastics and the energy-efficient manufacturing processes needed to produce components from this family of materials. Current forms of self-reinforced plastics typically offer typically 3-5 times th ...
