TITLE:
EXTREME. Substitution of CRMs in components and coatings used under extreme conditions
DESCRIPTION:
EXTREME is a network based on laboratories, advanced equipment, demo and pilot plants, owned by partners with high skills and expertise on the substitution/reduction of critical raw materials used under challenging conditions of temperature, wear, friction, loading, corrosion, etc., that are interesting for industries and enterprises in the manufacturing, machining, transport, construction sectors, etc. The main objectives of the network are:
•             the development of new shared actions focused at the substitution and efficient use of critical raw materials used under extreme conditions;
•             providing services (e.g. modeling of alternative materials, development of bulk and coating materials and related process optimization, characterization and functional testing of materials, recovery and recycling of materials, training of professionals and researchers, etc.) to enterprises, industries and research institutions in the interested sectors;
•             supporting related education activities.
