Organization pr<strong>of</strong>ile<br />
The main objective <strong>of</strong> Aitiip Technological Centre is to promote <strong>the</strong> business development, cultural and<br />
technological within industry. Aitiip <strong>of</strong>fers technological services to companies related with <strong>the</strong> plastic<br />
transformation and o<strong>the</strong>r strategic sectors. We promote activities that contribute to <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> a<br />
new business culture and enhancing competitiveness <strong>of</strong> enterprises.<br />
Main capacities in <strong>nanotechnology</strong> / nanoscience<br />
Aitiip Technological Centre has extensive experience and capabilities in <strong>the</strong> processing <strong>of</strong> nanomaterials<br />
and <strong>the</strong>ir integration in plastics to obtain composite materials with advanced functionalities.<br />
The main R&D lines within Aitiip where nanomaterials are relevant are summarized below:<br />
Composite materials, (based on carbon nanotubes, graphene, metallic nanoparticles, nanoclays<br />
among o<strong>the</strong>rs) are developed with application in different technological sectors such as, transport,<br />
aeronautics, renewable energies, civil infrastructures, etc…)<br />
Manufacturing processes. Aitiip has extensive experience in several manufacturing processes<br />
based on different nanomaterials. The most relevant are:<br />
- Automatization processes<br />
- Thermoset resins processing (RTM, infusión, oven molds, etc…)<br />
- Thermoplastic processing (injection, extrusion, compounding, blow extrusion, etc…)<br />
- Additive manufacturing<br />
• Plastic packaging. Aitiip has also capabilities in <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> nanoadditivaded plastic<br />
packaging. These materials present not only enhanced properties but also multifunctionalities with a<br />
great impact on <strong>the</strong> market. All packaging materials have applications in different technological sectors.<br />
Aitiip is responsible <strong>of</strong> concept design to <strong>the</strong> industrial implementation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> nanoadditivated packaging.<br />
