Aims of SuscompNet
SusCompNet is founded on the underpinning proposition that development
of enabling technologies for sustainable composite materials requires
a broadly based interdisciplinary approach, and that this type of approach
is unlikely to arise spontaneously. Although there is a significant amount
of work being done on this topic, it is currently being performed by isolated
specialist groups. There is a perceived lack of synergy between the various
emerging strands of "green" research, and much work has been
undertaken without close co-ordination with potential industrial users.
The aim of the network is to provide closer connections between research
and emerging industrial and social priorities. This will result in a multidisciplinary,
multi-sector partnership to the benefit of the research community, industry
and society at large.
