Next generation barrier materials to protect man against harmful environmental influence
The main objective of the project is to progress research and development works carried out by scientific research institutions that make up the consortium, and to use these new solutions and results in the economy of the region and the whole country, which will in turn, contribute to the improvement of the competitive position of the companies from the textile branch. The genesis of this described scientific enterprise stems from the need to adapt textile industry sector to the technological and developmental requirements expected from the economies of developed countries in terms of technology. It is connected with the change of the profile of textile industry sector from labour-intensive to science-intensive, which will enable the beneficiaries of the project to become suppliers of modern technologies for their sector in Poland.
Research work planned as part of the project and concerning next generation barrier materials on the basis of textile carriers will result in development of an offer, which will be implemented in the domestic textile industry in the sector of small- and medium-sized companies. Intensive development of nanotechnology, allowing for production of micro- and nanostructures capable of being applied in textile materials, creates a great potential for the production of modern, meeting requirements barrier materials widely used in many industry sectors, including protection of man against harmful environmental influence. The tasks to be realized as part of the programme:
– Assessment of effectiveness of model screens against EMF in real conditions, project manager: H. Aniołczyk, PhD
– Assessment of irritating and sensitizing effect in animals according to OECD, dispersion of different UV filters in different concentrations for application in textile materials, project manager: J. Piasecka-Zelga, PhD
– Assessment of irritating and sensitizing effect in animals according to OECD, dispersion of different UV filters in different concentrations for application in textile materials, project manager: B. Kręcisz, PhD
The scope of themes of the studies proposed to carry out as part of the project results directly from the tendency to use textile materials in technical solutions, in environment protection and human health. Manufacturing modern barrier materials protecting from physical agents such as: electromagnetic fields, ultraviolet radiation, static electricity and other belongs to the most modern directions of studies in the field of next generation textile products. The most significant objective of the research works planned for realization within the Key Project is to develop a technology of materials being an effective barrier for the mentioned above agents.
The project is realized in cooperation of a number of institutions such as: Textile Research Institute in Lodz, NIOM in Lodz, the Institute of Security Technologies ‘Moratex’, University of Technology in Poznań, University of Technology in Wroclaw, Central Institute for Labour Protection
