Call for projects for integration of novel nanomaterials into existing production lines

Nanomaterials are intended to improve the performance of existing production technologies, and to give new functionalities to products, such as lightweight solutions for transportation and construction, enhanced properties for packaging materials and processes, decreased wear and friction of yarns, enhanced electrical performance and reliability and high-performance thermal insulation and UV shielding fibrous materials (e.g. hollow fibres).
These projects should create accelerated market uptake of nanomaterials and products in one or more of the following sectors: fibre, yarn and textile; biomedical and packaging products (European Commission website, 11 December 2013).
