SUPER LIGHT-WEIGHT THERMAL PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR SPACE APPLICATION (LIGHT-TPS)
Start date: Apr 25, 2014, End date: May 1, 2017,
LIGHT-TPS will develop a new super-light Thermal Protection System (TPS) for various space applications, above all for Reusable Space Systems (RSS), capable of operating within the entire range of working temperatures. The project aims at radical properties improvements in the TPS used existing and under-development RSS. The main disadvantage of existing TPS based on metallic frames is the signifi ...

Knowledge Transfer Community to bridge the gap between research, innovation and business creation (NoGAP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
NoGAP bridges the gap between research and innovation and contributes to taking advantage of the innovation potential of SMEs based on a better cooperation with researchers, transferring and using knowledge resulting from research. The overall objective of the project is to reinforce cooperation with Eastern Partnership countries to develop a “Common Knowledge and Innovation Space” on societal cha ...

Z phase strengthened steels for ultra-supercritical power plants (Z-ultra)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2016,
The aim is to develop a heat resistant steel with a 100 000 hour creep strength of 100 MPa at 650°C. This allows increasing the thermal efficiency of fossil power plants to over 50%, which is 30% higher than the present standard in most existing power plants. The CO2 emissions are reduced accordingly. The consortium combines the expertise of a steelmaker, two utility companies, an engineering cons ...

Development of wear resistant coatings based on complex metallic alloys for functional applications (appliCMA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,
The project aims at the development of a new type of coatings based on Complex Metallic Alloys (CMA). This is a family of ternary and quaternary alloys which exhibit unexpected properties. The CMAs “Al61.5Cu25.3Fe12.2 B1” and “Al59.5Cu25.3Fe12.2 B3” consist only of metals, which show not metallic- but ceramic-like behaviour. Moreover, the bulk versions of these quasicrystals have proven outstandin ...
