Sur la route d’une chimie industrielle verte et durable : Fabrication de matériaux composites biosourcés.

Imaginez des matériaux en plastique renforcé de fibres (PRF) très solides, fabriqués par les entreprises. Aujourd’hui, ces matériaux ne sont pas toujours faciles à recycler et contiennent des fibres qui ne sont pas très écologiques. Ce projet de recherche vise à rendre ces matériaux plus durables. Pour cela, le stagiaire va explorer deux pistes : […]
