Natural fibre reinforced plastics (NFRP) combine a promising potential for lightweight applications with a significant carbon footprint reduction, compared to conventional fibre reinforced plastics (FRP). Additionally, the specific material properties of natural fibres can enable further advancements, regarding e.g. low density, low material costs and high damping properties. Especially for applications in mobility, these properties…

Tape Technologie Transfer Hub – Think INSIDE the box…

ByLouisa Dahlen

…this well-worn phrase actually works slightly different. But improving existing parts and technologies is often the best way to get the most out of a minimal investment. In this context, the question arises: can components that are currently produced in high volumes in the injection moulding process be optimised in terms of their carbon footprint…
