Lightweight Composite Innovation: Crumb Rubber Enhances Structural Efficiency

Upon the establishment of the structure-property relationships of the composites, the team will work with industry partners to identify commercial opportunities for the research. This will involve using the research findings to understand where commercial opportunities might be available in relation to the newly developed composite materials through: the utilisation of TDP for composite production purposes via assessing the business case for using TDP relative to conventional materials, & engagement with local manufacturers to ascertain the commercial and process oriented barriers and opportunities associated with the utilisation of TDP in composite materials.
