SIXTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME
NANOTECHNOLOGIES AND NANOSCIENCES, KNOWLEDGE-BASED MULTIFUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, AND NEW PRODUCTION PROCESSES AND DEVICES
Activities
NANOCAPS has been configured in five main activities addressing specific problems. Two of these are technology oriented and concern the production of nano-materials as capsule core and shell. Two others are directed to basic research and consider fundamental studies on the reactivity of the core materials and the capsules, and the development of new advanced methods for the characterisation of nano-capsules. The fifth activity considers the validation and exploitation of the knowledge in multi-sectorial industrial prototypes. Finally, the project will make a validation of the system and the process developed, with mobile test units for targeted applications.
