Call
Detailed Call Description
The optimisation of functionality including sustainability and safety considerations and all aspects on resource utilisation across the materials life cycle is essential. Such materials with desired properties and the corresponding manufacturing processes should be designed with the assistance of in silico techniques.
The proposals, activities and approaches should cover both – specific considerations for the metal coatings under study, as well as developing overarching best practices that spans broader sectors of safe- and sustainable-by-design materials. Proposals should involve all the actors in the value chain. In line with the Union’s strategy for international cooperation in research and innovation, international cooperation is encouraged.
