Modified cost effective fibre based structures with improved multi-functionality and performance (MODCOMP)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2020,

Current technological demands are increasingly stretching the properties of advanced materials to expand their applications to more severe or extreme conditions, whilst simultaneously seeking cost-effective production processes and final products. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the influence of different surface enhancing and modification techniques on CF-based materials for high value ...

Biobased self-functionalised self-reinforced composite materials based on high performance nanofibrillar PLA fibres (BIO4SELF)

Start date: Mar 1, 2016, End date: Jun 30, 2019,

BIO4SELF aims at fully biobased self-reinforced polymer composites (SRPC). To produce the SRPCs two polylactic acid (PLA) grades are required: a low melting temperature (Tm) one to form the matrix and an ultra high stiffness and high Tm one to form the reinforcing fibres. To reach unprecedented stiffness in the reinforcing PLA fibres, we will combine PLA with bio-LCP (liquid crystalline polymer) f ...

A novel process for manufacturing complex shaped Fe-Al intermetallic parts resistant to extreme environments (EQUINOX)

Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

There is a need to find solutions to replace Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) such as Chromium, Nickel, Molybdenium and Vanadium in high volume end consumer products. Steels and superalloys with considerable amounts of these CRMs are widely used in many industrial applications, particularly under extreme conditions where corrosion and wear resistance are needed. It is generally accepted, that interme ...
