Hydrogel Superhydrophobe

Technologies

This innovative material is based on polyaniline (PANi) and silanes and replicates the 3D nanostructure of the silica hydrogel.
The result is a superhydrophobic transparent material that could be used as a coating in various applications: self-cleaning windows, anti-biofilm surfaces, as an oil and water filter in industrial spills.

This promising material has been researched by the Texas University in the USA and by the Nanjing University in China. Another peculiarity is that, unlike other superhydrophobic coatings, it is possible to stretch it 100% without breaking it.

Materials and Testing

We improve the properties of the plastic and achieve a 160º contact angle with water without modifying the production process or adding coatings.

sensores7

We designed, trained and installed a computer vision system with a collaborative robot to inspect 5 critical seat assembly points.

Materials and Testing

We look for the origin of the corrosion failure of the copper pipes of a heat exchanger through techniques such as SEM, EDX, XRF or water analysis to find out why the failure occurs.

Our technologies

recycle-waste-piled-up-for-collection

We develop waste sorting algorithms that can act at any stage of the process, from source separation to recycling.

01. Hero-ValR

We extract the valuable materials contained in industrial and agri-food waste and give them a new life.

01. Hero-Recub

We develop and apply layers on a material to enhance its surface properties or provide it with new functionalities.

We select, apply, and test smart materials that respond to external stimuli in a controlled manner.
