EUROPEAN CONGRESS AND EXHIBITION ON ADVANCED MATERIALS AND PROCESSES - EUROMAT 2021

The interest of the scientific community on composites of polymeric matrices and carbon-based materials, such as graphene and graphene oxide (GO) has been growing mainly due to the already well-known excellent thermal and electrical properties of these materials. Graphene is a high thermal conductivity material. Depending on the conditions of analysis it can reach about 3000Wm^(-1) k^(-1), and...

NextGenMicrofluidics is an EU funding opportunity that aims on the formation of networks of facilities and services for upscaling of key technologies. The key technology is production of microfluidics-on-foil-substrates – by imprinting, and lamination processes, which we adapted for the demands of microfluidics. The technology is related to cell culture devices for pharmaceutical testing and...

Hybrid supercapacitors are energy storage devices combining a negative carbon electrode (capacitive storage) and a positive electrode of transition metal oxide/hydroxide (faradic or pseudocapacitive storage). Those devices can reach high power density, but they need to be improved in terms of energy density [1]. Previous studies carried out in the laboratory have shown that positive electrodes...

Termed as magnetoelectrical coupling, a strong interaction between ferroelectricity and magnetism in the same phase tends to be mutually exclusive and manifests itself weakly even when coexist. On the other hand, can offer routes to entirely new device architectures with great potential for practical applications, which has led to the extremely rapid development of magnetoelectric and/or...
