With Buildwise, Sirris found a way to recycle unused thermoplastic waste, cutting CO2 by 20% and recovering more plastic, including wind turbine blades.
Ultrashort pulse lasers can modify surfaces to give them new properties or functionalities such as friction, water repellency, anti-bacterial action or higher heat release. They offer many advantages ...
Removable coatings allow coated interior products to be reused several times, which will significantly extend their lifespan and ensure recyclable waste streams at end-of-life. The PEELDESIGN project ...
In this article of our series on microfluidic lab-on-chips, we describe how to apply and control the temperature in ‘miniaturised’ geometries, as is the case for microfluidic chips. Are you a designer ...
Researchers at Sirris demonstrate for first time femtosecond laser texturing of soft biopolymer coatings as a high-throughput method for surface patterning.
In this article of our series on microfluidic lab-on-chips we discuss some basic principles of how to detect or quantify the amount of biochemical target in a test sample.
At the end of 2023, the 3-year BREPLA project, with a focus on Biobased REinforced PLAstics, came to an end. During this project, Sirris worked together with project partner Centexbel – VKC to promote ...
Earlier in this ongoing series of articles on microfluidics in industry, we discussed various development steps for a lab-on-a-chip system. In the project ‘Medical Diagnostics Goes Micro and Smart’ we ...
A lab-on-a-chip (LoC) makes it possible to miniaturise complex lab processes and perform them fast and accurately on a microscale. In this article we focus on the aspects of flow control in such ...
Innovation in manufacturing plays a key role in reducing the industry’s environmental impact. Recent advances in non-classical manufacturing technologies, such as ultrashort pulsed laser manufacturing ...
