MW-VNT-92 Innovative natural fiber-based products
Qualification goals
Students have basic knowledge of the structure and manufacture of fiber composites and the design of new products, taking into account the current challenges of increasing added value and aspects of reducing the carbon footprint. They have the ability to integrate technologies from other industrial sectors and to export established technology. Students are thus able to apply the basic processes and integrate new or non-industry-specific technologies.
Contents
The module covers the possibilities of natural fiber-based products in the bioeconomy, including manufacturing processes with natural fibers as well as fiber modification processes for paper and composite materials. Further contents are the production of functional barriers, innovative filter materials, nonwovens and the material properties for the 3D forming of cardboard as well as example applications of composite materials in the production of laminates and ceramics.
