Academic CentreDevelopment of novel and innovative composite materials with enhanced sorption properties from renewable biological natural resources available in the Republic of Latvia for commercial air purification filtration systems (1.1.1.1/20/A/155)
The goal of this industry-driven, non-economic ERDF research project is to develop novel and innovative composite materials, which will consist of radiation and thermally modified sheep wool fibres with enhanced sorption properties of gaseous compounds.
Flexible thermoelectric devices based on innovative carbon nanotube-topological insulator networks (1.1.1.1/19/A/138)
Project goal: to develop flexible thermoelectric (TE) films for innovative carbon nanotube (CNT) – topological insulator (TI) mesh heterostructures with better thermoelectric performance compared to the latest flexible organic or organic/inorganic composites to demonstrate thermoelectric devices made of these films for various applications at temperatures from -50 to +200°C.
Development of nanostructured thermoelectric materials and their application in thermal insulation panels to increase the energy efficiency of buildings (1.1.1.1/20/A/144)
Project goal: to develop environmentally friendly nanostructured thermoelectric materials based on networks of metal oxide nanostructures and carbon nanotubes; to create flexible thermoelectric thin films; to demonstrate prototypes of thermoelectric thermal insulation panels for thermal insulation of structural elements of flat (walls, floors, roofs) and curved (hot water pipes, chimneys) buildings.
