A new environment-friendly manufacturing approach for marine antifouling coating (LIFE Paint-it)
Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2020,
Background
Fouling is the unwanted growth of biological material - such as barnacles and algae - on surfaces of structures immersed in water, such as the hulls of ships. If not properly treated, ship hulls become covered with numerous organisms, and this undesired colonisation has severe consequences. The main effects on ships are surface deterioration, s ...

Resource-Efficient Factory Of Recyclable Manufacturing composite components (REFORM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
REFORM focuses on more resource-efficiency and cleaner manufacturing technologies for composite components to be exploited in different industrial sectors (e.g. Transport, Energy, Construction, ..). Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are becoming very popular as their use reduces weight and allow innovative designs for energy-saving products during service-life. Nevertheless, service-life d ...

Microcellular nanocomposite for substitution of Balsa wood and PVC core material (NanCore)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
The project objective is to design a novel and cost-effective microcellular nanocomposite foam, with mechanical properties comparable to or better than Balsa wood and PVC foam, allowing for a substitution of these as core materials for lightweight composite sandwich structures. The material will be applicable for widespread industrial use, e.g. within Wind Power, rail, shipbuilding and automotive ...
