A Novel Microwave-Enhanced Superheated Steam Process for High Performance Drying of Hygroscopic Polymers (HIPERDRY)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
The principal objective of the HiPerDry project is to create a significant advance over the state of the art in hygroscopic polymer drying technology. A three year development programme which will culminate in the testing and demonstration of a prototype hygroscopic polymer drying system is proposed. The resulting combined microwave and super-heated steam drying (MW-SHSD) system will boast the fol ...

Development of an efficient heating and cooling technology system for rotational moulding, which will –dramatically reduce cycle time, product cost and energy consumption (ROTOFAST)
Start date: Aug 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2013,
Rotational Molding is a very competitive manufacturing method for producing large hollow plastic products. It provides one advantage over other plastic processing technologies: production of seamless articles, with uniform wall thickness and complex shapes for sectors as chemical storage, toys, construction and transports. However this technology has stuck without major innovative improvements in ...

Novel Injection Moulding Processing for the Production of Low Density Foams based on Innovative Granule Technology (LIGHT-FOAM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,
"Our concept is to enable the production of high quality foams from engineering grade thermoplastics using existing injection moulding and extrusion equipment installed in our SME communities. We propose the creation of a novel polymer processing technology. We will develop the ability to foam engineering grade thermoplastics without the need for chemical blowing agents or speciality moulding equi ...
