Latex replacement for automotive interior felts and building industry (LATEXFRI)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
This LATEXFRI project is a way to launch industrially a new technology (D-Preg from Fibroline), rewarded with the Innovation Prize during the last Techtextil 2011, to manufacture latex free carpets for automotive interior parts.Nowadays, a large part of the conventional carpets for cars is manufactured from polyester nonwovens impregnated with a latex coating. Main constraints of those materials a ...

Multiscale reinforcement of semi-crystalline thermoplastic sheets and honeycombs (M-RECT)
Start date: Apr 15, 2010, End date: Apr 14, 2014,
The M-RECT project aims to create multiscale-reinforced semi-crystalline thermoplastics (PEEK and PPS), which will outperform all reinforced polymers in terms of strength, stiffness, creep and mainly damping by upscaling and further developing state of the art production methods, within cost-efficient manufacturing routes. The envisaged multiscale reinforcement will comprise of dispersed straighte ...

Resource-Efficient Self-Reinforced Plastic Materials and Processing (ESPRIT)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
The aims of the Esprit project are to reduce the amount of plastic used to make a component by 30% and reduce component weight by 30%, by developing the next generation of lightweight, self-reinforced plastics and the energy-efficient manufacturing processes needed to produce components from this family of materials. Current forms of self-reinforced plastics typically offer typically 3-5 times th ...
