Basic information
Acronym: MARGEN
Contract number: POIG.01.03.01-00-018/08-00
Project manager: doc dr hab. Marek Kowalczuk
Project is co-financed in the framework of the Innovative Economy Operational Programme 2007-2013. Priority Axis 1. Research and Development of new technologies Activity 1. Support for Research and Development Projects for entrepreneurs, implemented by research units. Sub-activity 1.3.1. Development Project.
Financing:
85 per cent - European Regional Development Fund
15 per cent - National Public Resources
Project objectives:
- Development of concepts concerning technological manufacturing process of biodegradable polymer materials (polymers, polymer compositions, nanocomposites), which undergo biodegradation in industrial composting conditions;
- Development of concepts concerning manufacture of films made from those materials, intended for direct applications as well as manufacturing new generation thermoformed rigid containers used primarily for foodstuff.
