Continuous, highly precise, metal-free polymerisation of PLA using alternative energies for reactive extrusion (InnoREX)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2016,
The demand for biobased polymers is growing fast. According to the current state of the art, metal-containing catalysts are needed to improve the polymerisation rate of lactones, posing a hazard to health and the environment. InnoREX will develop a novel reactor concept using alternative energies for the continuous, highly precise, metal-free polymerisation of PLA.In InnoREX, metal-containing cata ...

Development of new light high-performance environmentally benign composites made of bio-materials and bio-resins for electric car application (ECOSHELL)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
"ECOSHELL is concerned with the development of optimal structural solutions for superlight electric vehicles (category L6 and L7e), decreasing its environmental footprint and using an innovative bio-composite material for the vehicle body. Traditionally this category of urban vehicles has been relatively expensive and lacking of sufficient security measures compared to a classic vehicle (category ...

NANOMATERIALS-RELATED ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND HEALTH HAZARDS THROUGHOUT THEIR LIFE-CYCLE (NEPHH)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2012,
The purpose of this project is to identify and rate important forms of nanotechnology-related environmental pollution and health hazards that could result from activities involved in nano-structures throughout their life-cycle, and to suggest means that might reduce or eliminate these impacts. Besides the positive multipurpose nano-reinforcement in materials and expanded devices applications, lit ...
