By combining a light polymer with strong and rigid fibres, composites bring all these properties together in one material. Composites also offer other advantages, such as freedom of shape, corrosion and fatigue resistance. They are therefore widely applicable in industries such as aerospace ...

Measuring is knowing, but knowing alone does not appear to be enough: global circularity has been steadily declining, year after year, since 2019. Just as important as knowing measurement results is accepting that we need to make adjustments if we want to have an impact on those results. Some tips ...

After a successful test series, Siemens Energy was able to demonstrate that a new step-up transformer for wind industry applications can also start in cold conditions, to improve the cold-start procedure and to reduce waiting times after a cold period.

Epoxy resins are still a first-choice polymer for applications in adhesives, composites and protective coatings on wood, concrete or stone because of the good balance in mechanical properties and long-term protection. Their use, however, is somewhat limited due to some drawbacks in intrinsic ...

Circular economy and circularity are everywhere these days, although for many companies these concepts are still too vague. How to turn theory into practice remains a big question. With the 'Circularity put into practice' event on 6 June 2023, Sirris intends to make things a little clearer.

Coated paper-based packaging has an important role to play in the transition to a circular economy. The extent to which these materials can be recycled is a key factor in further increasing their sustainability and circularity to meet European targets. As part of the RePac2-project, Sirris has been ...

WindEurope, the largest event by and for the European wind industry, presented us with the latest trends and state of the art to be found in this booming sector. Sirris was a part of it, as a visitor and as an expert. A short review.
