THERMALCOND

Polymeric composite materials with enhanced thermal conductivity properties for heat exchanger applications

Project partners

Objectives

The main goal of the project is to develop a new family of low-cost polyolefin-based components (sheets, pipes and fittings) to be used in the manufacturing of flat-plate solar thermal collectors.

Description

THERMALCOND is a European collaborative project that aims to develop a NOVEL PLASTIC COLLECTOR that is more efficient, cheaper and lighter than metallic collectors. These collectors will have an improved design due to the use of plastic materials, high thermally conductive nanoparticles modified with SAM technology, and a flexible absorber coating based on nanometallic oxides.
