BioStruct is a large scale collaborative project funded by the European Commission. The project involves 20 partners from 10 European countries, and has a total budget of around 10 million €.
The project aims to develop the next generation of wood and cellulose-reinforced composites - so-called "enhanced wood-plastic composites" or eWPCs - for complex structural and multifunctional components. Material development will be accompanied by parallel process development to optimise the potential of the new composites. The newly developed materials and processes will be implemented in four different industrial sectors: automotive, construction, electronics and packaging.
In the framework of the project a more elaborated training material has been developed. This training material is split into different modules explaining the BioStruct materials, material properties and process technologies. Furthermore, an overview of the implementation by various case-studies is s...
