| Abstract |
| SeaBioComp develops new, sea-friendly composite materials for the maritime industry: biobased and thermoplastic, with reduced CO2 emissions and reduced ecotoxic impact (microplastics). In time, these can replace the traditionally used fiber-reinforced composites based on oil. The project also establishes analytical protocols to evaluate their long-term robustness and reduced ecological impact on the marine environment. |
