Implementations
The methods developed in CoSiMa have been successfully implemented across various industrial applications involving a wide range of materials.. Discover them below.
Controlled Release
Controlled drug release systems use polymer-coated pellets that form porous structures in bodily fluids, regulating how the drug is released. By adjusting materials and processes, the release rate can be precisely tailored to improve treatment and reduce side effects.
Examine Controlled Release →Fiber Structures
Fibrous materials control liquid flow and retention through their microstructure and fiber design.
Investigate Fibre Structures →Machine Clothing
Machine clothing in paper production supports pulp drying while controlling water flow to avoid surface marks. Its weave must balance precision and durability to withstand high-speed operation.
Learn about Machine Clothing →Breathable Films
Breathable films in hygiene products like diapers and pads regulate moisture and comfort through their micro-structured permeability.
Uncover Breathable Films →Chromatography
High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) separates compounds by pushing a solvent mixture through a column of porous particles. Differences in binding affinity cause compounds to exit at different times, enabling separation.
Discover Chromatography →Paperboard Coating
Coated paperboard enhances printability by retaining ink and letting solvent pass. Its 3D microstructure is key to optimizing mass transport.
