A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
Metal Replacement is the replacement of metal materials (steels, aluminium alloys, cast iron...) with high performing polymeric materials. The recent developments of new and better performing thermoplastic materials allow applications to be extended...
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a low environmental impact fuel capable of reducing considerably the emissions of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides, as required by the European regulation (directive 2012/33 / EU). The CLEANPORT project provided the...
Geopolymers are synthetic inorganic polymers based on aluminosilicates or phosphates and chemically bonded at T <300 ° C. This technology enables the production of materials with properties of certain ceramic materials with the same approach of...
This devices are miniaturized sensors able to provide extremely accurate pressure measurements. They are plane capacitors with parallel plates, whose capacitance has a non-linear dependence with the pressure. They can be implemented in applications...
The mechanical characterization leads to define the limits of use of a material for a specific application, identifying its mechanical properties. This activity is performed as an essential part of the development of new processes and materials, and...
