Research and Development

PIROS

Description

As part of the project, innovative technologies for the realisation of components made from multi-functional composite materials such as Liquid Molding Processes (RTM, RFI, VARTM, RIFT), are developed and applied. In addition, the nanometric dispersion process of the batches in resin is developed further with the aim of achieving a uniform, controlled and repeatable dispersion.

Aim

The aim of the project is the development of materials and structures in a digital experimental laboratory for testing and qualifying materials and structures and the effects of fire.
Target Group: other companies in the Technology District and sub-contractors.
Benefits: gaining expertise in the fire sector emerges from the necessity of having to know the behaviour of innovative composite materials and the effects of fire and be able to predict this behaviour as these are materials of organic or synthetic origin, which are as such inflammable. The insights gained in the laboratory can hence be applied in all branches of industry with a fire risk and the materials used must be qualified with respect to their fire behaviour.

MANTA

Description

The subject of the project is the development of new modified composite materials with a proportion of inorganic or metallic nanoparticles and carbon nano-tubes and the commensurate production technology, which enable, on the basis of the polymers developed or specially modified matrices, innovative structure adhesives to be obtained and new comments with wide-ranging performance characteristics to be produced.

Aim

The aim of the project is the study and optimisation of polymer systems with innovative functional and structural characteristics, which result from the inclusion of nanoparticles.
The target groups of the project results are companies in the strategic sectors such as aerospace and vehicle and rail engineering. Materials with nanometric particles are for these companies extremely promising, with regard to a solution of the criticalities, which currently restrict the use of composite materials in certain applications for adhesives, foams and thermoplastics with long or continuous fibres.
