Activities

RESEARCH SUMMARY :

The group is working on a common proposal related to the following 2011-topic: Research and innovation for advanced multifunctional ceramic materials. The scope is to ensure a large participation of ceramic companies working in the field of materials with high added values, so-called technical or advanced ceramics. The Consortium is looking for 5 SME’s.

RESEARCH SUMMARY :

The aim of the project is to study the viability of suspension plasma spraying (SPS) technique to obtain TiO2 layers with good photocatalytic activity on metallic and glass substrates. According the positive results, the teams are working closely to define collaboration axes within R&D European programs related to the developed technique.
