Horizon Europe - IPPT_TWINN

Reinforcing the scientific excellence and innovation capacity in polymer processing technologies of the Faculty of Polymer Technology 

Project acronym: IPPT_TWINN 

Program: Horizon Europe 

Goal: The main goal of the project is to increase the knowledge and competences of FTPO in the field of polymer materials processing  through joint research work and organization of various events/activities, such as workshops, summer schools, expert visits, conferences, etc. 

Goal of the research part of the project: To develop a hybrid technology that allows the production of high-performance composite structures with a thermoplastic matrix that can be recycled (combines T-RTM, injection molding and additive manufacturing, within the production of a single part). 

Partners:
