About the event
Join us on 24 September 2024 for an insightful event focused on the current advancements and challenges in bio-based polymers and their role in combating plastic waste. The event is organised by FURIOUS and THERMOFIRE, two CBE JU funded projects developing bio-based polymers for challenging applications. In this online webinar, you will discover the first preliminary results of the research of furan-based polymers developed by the FURIOUS project. You will also get a glimpse of advances in bio-based fire-retardants that are being improved by the researchers of the THERMOFIRE project.
