Due to unique characteristics such as their high strength-to-weight ratio (enabling light-weighting) and long durability, thermoset based composite materials provide significant advantages over conventional materials such as steel or aluminium. This makes them very attractive for a growing number of applications across sectors, ranging from aerospace and automotive to construction, railway, energy, and sports. The [...]
The BIZENTE project has participated in the face-to-face conference "Digitization, Circular Economy and Talent" jointly organized by the AITIIP technology center and the Aragón Automotive Cluster in Zaragoza (Spain). It was an event in which experts from different sectors have radiographed the current industrial ecosystem and its relationship with these three key vectors within the [...]
Within the research activities of BIZENTE are those related to customisation and development of enzymes and resins at lab level. In this respect, the consortium has been working on the chemical modification of resins to enhance materials biodegradability. Below we offer a summary of the main findings of this work. Unlike thermoplastic for which effective [...]
On 27th of May, in a joint webinar in the frame of the EU Green Week the key players of BIZENTE PROJECT and other European projects shed a light on enzymatic solutions for non-recyclable agricultural and packaging plastics, microplastic pollution, thermoset composites and plastic fractions that cannot be recycled. During the online event, our experts [...]
On May 11th, 2021, the Bizente project organized an event within the EU Green Week. The event brought the project to all type of public. A direct and visual overview of the project was given, and the current problem with thermoset plastic waste was analysed (Spanish language). In addition, the participants had the opportunity to [...]
Alain Graillot is the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of SPECIFIC POLYMERS company and leads industrial and collaborative R&D projects.
