Intelligent bulk Materials for Smart Transport Industries

MASTRO European project aims to develop intelligent bulk materials for the transport sector based on novel concepts like self-sensing, self-deicing, self-curing, self-healing, and selfprotection properties.

The functionality of the developed components will be supported by theoretical material models and demonstrated under relevant conditions at prototype level for the aerospace, automotive, and transportation networks.

The matrices addressed consist of lightweight polymer composites, asphalt, and concrete formulations incorporating electrical carbon-based conductive nanomaterials. These materials will improve consumer safety, component life-span, and performance while reducing maintenance and manufacturing costs.
