Energy Efficient Composite Tooling with Integrated Self-Regulating Heating and Curing Capabilities based on Recycled Composite Waste (ECOTOOL)

The proposed research will develop great synergies between ongoing Hub research activities and three new academic contributing institutions, achieving novel collaborative research on energy efficient and cost-effective composite manufacturing with a clear contribution to advance the UK’s composite manufacturing capabilities. This project links the expertise and experience of seven academic and industrial contributors, addressing the need of sustainable development of composite sector alongside multiple Hub priority research themes.
