CONTACT is a research and training project funded by the European Commission's "Marie Curie" programme. CONTACT involves 10 partner organisations from 7 different countries, who will recruit 15 PhD students and 3 post docs for the project.
The research aim of CONTACT is the tailored industrial supply-chain development of CNT-filled polymer composites with improved mechanical and electrical properties. This will involve the optimisation of CNT synthesis and dispersion, and the processing of CNT compounds, as well as the modelling and characterisation of CNT and CNT composites.
Subproject title: “Optimisation of the production process for wind blades made from CNT-epoxy composites”. You can find more details attached.
Applicants should contact Jyrki Vuorinen (jyrki.vuorinen@tut.fi) by 15.12.2011.
