Development of additives for plastics with high impact and mechanical strength, anti-scratch, antistatic and flame retardant characteristics and hydrophobic/hydrophilic behaviour.
Development of additives for paints with high mechanical strength and anti-bacterial, anti-scratch and thermal insulation characteristics.
Conductive inks.
Development of additives for the galvanic sector, to provide the traditional coatings (nickel, zinc, cataphoretic paints, etc..) with high mechanical properties (low friction coefficient and wear rate) and corrosion resistance.
Full characterization of nano particles as such or in liquid suspension: Shape and morphology; Average size and size distribution; Crystalline phases; Chemical composition of surface and bulk; Z Potential. The instruments available are: FIB-SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS, AES, DLS.
Nano-Safety
For the responsible development of nanotechnology, TEC Star is committed to developing an internal code of conduct to serve as a quality benchmark for appropriate guidelines in relation to the safety of products/processes (nano-safety). This development is related to the participation of TEC Star in some FP7 EU projects about this topic. As a matter of fact, the code will be consistent with the EU principles, that will cover all individuals (public and private) involved in nanoscience and nanotechnology researches (code of conduct for responsible nanosciences and nanotechnologies research - 2008).

18/10/2011 - TEC Star officially opens its new own Laboratory
TEC Star engineers have just completed the set up of the new research laboratory for experimentation on nanomaterials. In the last months TEC Star technicians committed to put into effect all the instruments recently acquired, some of which co-funded within the project call for the start-up of new innovative companies.[ continue... ]
