NANOHÁBITAT

Objectives:

Development of new materials based on nanotechnology for use in the construction and housing sectors, creating products with new functionalities.

Description:

The project has carried out industrial research into new materials using nanotechnology to develop new products for the construction and housing sectors. The aim is to add new functionalities to traditional materials, such as smart solutions to prevent corrosion, new optical properties, biocide capacity, superhydrophobicity, superoleophobicity, fire resistance, and the capacity to dissipate static charges. Another objective of the project was the implementation of new industrial manufacturing processes using low-energy nanomaterials with no environmental impact by applying green chemical processes.

Project partners:

8 companies and 5 technology centres
