Demining tool-BOX for humanitarian clearing of large scale area from anti-personal landmines and cluster munitions (D-BOX)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

Landmines and the cluster munitions still kill or maim civilians every day in an indiscriminate manner even long after conflicts are over. At the current rate of clearance of about 500,000 mines per year and assuming no additional mines are laid from now on, it could still take hundreds of years to find and clear all the landmines around the world.D-BOX will tackle the burning issue of anti-person ...

Novel Temperature Regulating Fibres and Garments (NoTeReFiGa)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

The objective of the project is to develop novel temperature regulating fibres and innovative textile products for thermal management, selected by the SME segment of the textile industry in Europe. The temperature regulating effect is achieved by novel methods of incorporating large amounts of phase changing materials (PCM) in textile fibres. When the body temperature increases, the PCM melts and ...

Innovative advanced Wood-based Composite Materials and Components (WOODY)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

Currently the world of polymeric composite materials is almost exclusively based on fossil derived components. This fact represents a strong issue, as the non-renewable global oil resources are being exploited year after year, also as a consequence of the ever growing demand for plastics engineering materials. WOODY Project goal is to develop new composite panels and laminates from wood derived re ...

Development of an Antibacterial Cloth Based on Microfibre (CleanCloth)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

In the CleanCloth project, we propose to develop a superior cleaning cloth with constant and continuous antibacterial effect, ensuring that no bacteria is left in the cloth and making bacterial re-growth impossible, without need for special and time-consuming hygiene procedures. This will be accomplished by a unique technology with antibacterial agent integrated into the microfiber of the cloth. T ...
