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.
In the aerospace and fast transport sectors there is a growing demand for advanced structural materials capable of withstanding temperatures over 1500 °C in highly corrosive environments. Rocket nozzles and thermal protection systems for spacecraft...
The aim of the project is to prolong the shelf-life of fresh filled pasta using bioprotective cultures endowed with antimicrobial activity against pathogens or spoilage microflora. The project is divided in two phases: 1) evaluation of microbial...
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...
Transparent ceramic materials are fundamental as sources of laser radiation, especially for high efficiencies and emission in the infrared wavelenghts (typically in the region of 1010 to 1080 nm). The transparent ceramic material that has reached the...
Processes for the production of ceramic-based articles with controlled porosity in terms of volume, morphology, size, interconnection, 3D distribution. ISTEC manufactures ceramic or hybrid architectures with functional porosity (multidimensional from...
Service implemented for companies that seek to pursue "natural" microbiological foodstuff stabilisation strategies. It provides a competitive market advantage since it addresses consumers' increasing demand for minimally treated products with no...
Technology which makes it possible to obtain a process to clarify cloudy oil, assuring high retention of the qualitative features (physico-chemical, sensory and health-related) of the product as it does not come in contact with foreign material such...
