The GREEN-COMP Team two-day meeting was devoted to summarizing the progress achieved during 7 months of the project’s implementation as well as the strategic management of the project, discussions on the next steps, imminent actions, and perspectives for the coming months.
Research and Development Showcases:
The first day of the meeting held at the Air Force Institute of Technology – AFIT. The consortium partners, TMBK Partners Sp. z o.o., AFIT, NOMA Resins Sp. z o.o., Global Consulting Sustainability AS and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology – NTNU, conducted a comprehensive overview of the progress made till now. Moreover, the participants had the exceptional opportunity to learn more about AFIT’s cutting-edge work in research and development within the realm of composites technology. Beyond the presentation, the project partners explored the laboratories dedicated to material engineering tests.
The second day of the meeting was nestled within the inspiring surroundings of the Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering at Warsaw University of Technology, the strategic partner of TMBK Partners Sp. z o.o. The day kicked off with an enlightening presentation from Warsaw University of Technology. Following this, TMBK Partners Sp. z o.o. and TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS Foundation showcased their projects, focusing on electrically conductive composites and functional coatings.
A highlight of the day was the exceptional visit to the electron microscopy laboratories, offering the capability to analyze the structure and properties of materials at the atomic level. The Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering at Warsaw University of Technology is equipped with a state-of-the-art transmission electron microscope, enabling the characterization of materials from metals to semiconductors, ceramics, and polymers.
