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.
It is known that SARS-CoV-2 virus can enter the body also through the eyes, especially in individuals suffering from dry eye syndrome. In these individuals, the virus initially causes conjunctivitis, which may potentially progress to the typical...
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 procedures developed by the Laboratory for Advanced Therapy Technologies (LTTA) exploit innovative technologies for the evaluation of the immunomodulatory and antioxidant properties of specific compounds contained in foods, nutraceuticals and...
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...
Assessment of in vitro effects of drugs, active ingredients and neo-synthesis molecules on primary cultures of human endothelial cells (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells and adult Vein Endothelial Cells) through monitoring i) cellular...
