To make the most out of , an event occurring June 20-29, 2022 in Perugia, Italy, as well as exchange news and best practices concerning the composites industry, a technical group of ceramic matrix composites (CMC) academic and industry experts are hosting what is said to be the first Italo-French in-person event after the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The meeting, scheduled for June 25, 2022 from 9:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m., will take place in the Corciano room at the Centro Congressi Hotel Quatrotorri, located in Perugia, Italy. The morning will begin with expert presentations about CMC research and technical development in Italy, France and Germany, by academics from the (Politecnico di Torino, POLITO) and the (Laboratoire des Composites Thermo Structuraux – LCTS), which is co-funded by the (France), the (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, CNRS), the (CEA) and the (Paris, France).
Among the scheduled topics from invited presenters, from Italian and French industries and universities, both innovative CMC processing routes and applications will be explored. (Italy) will introduce carbon-fiber reinforced CMC by (R)MI Route, while (France) will discyss the development of SiC/SiC CMC for nuclear fuel cladding applications. (France) will present the development of ox/ox and fiber/geopolymer CMC for underground nuclear waste storage management applications.
In addition, the EU-funded , and its proposed application within the steelmaking industry, will be discussed in two presentations by its consortium members. The first one, by the LCTS Lab, will include a general overview of the new routes for CMC processing. The second one, more specific on the project cycle and first results, will be given by the project coordinator, (UNIPI, Italy). The LCTS Lab, POLITO and the UNIPI are all members of the CEM-WAVE consortium.
Organized by the (GDR CMC2) and the CNRS LCTS Lab, with the collaboration of the (ACERS), the and the (J-Tech) within POLITO, the CMCs event is free of charge and open to all interested parties .
