The main purpose of this CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA 17815:2021) is to propose a widely agreed and common basic architecture for materials characterization data (CHADA), which can be used as a building block for the most complex characterization case studies, also comprising interactions with modelling and process workflows. This document gives the foundations for a wider adoption of the CHADA principle by other projects and stakeholders.
NanoPAT got featured in the last BNN newsletter (pages 19-22), in September 2021.
As already announced, NanoPAT contributed actively to the NanoInnovation 2021 Conference. In particular to the online Workshop âSafe by Design of nanomaterials in industrial production processesâ on September 24th.
The final thematic Conference on Advanced Materials took place on 14 June 2021 as an hybrid event (online and in Berlin) with the main idea to disseminate and discuss the results of the project on advanced materials commissioned by the German Environmental Agency (UBA), and which was financed by the German Ministry of the Environment, Nature Protection and Nuclear Safety (BMU).
Despina Emmanouilidou from Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) was visiting, June 28th-July 2nd, the University of Potsdam (UP) for training and networking purposes within the NanoPAT project. After the first year of the NanoPAT project, the aim of the visit was an intensive training by PDWS experts at innoFSPECPotsdam, with a focus on zeolite synthesis and first experiments with offline and inline photon density wave spectroscopy (PDWS). Additionally, measurement of zeolite properties with reference methods exclusively available in Potsdam were planned.
NanoPAT was included in the new NSC newsletter from July 2021. You can find the article about the project on the pages 36-38.
Under the Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the first half of 2021, this 2021 edition of the EuroNanoForum addressed, during the two days of the conference (5-6 May 2021), Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials as the key elements to guarantee the functioning, long term durability, safety, and environmental compatibility of many devices, machinery, and services, highlighting the fundamental role of advanced materials for the transition to greener technologies, and a more sustainable future, making a significant contribution to the ambitious goals set by the European Green Deal. Furthermore, the role of nano-enabled industries in the drive towards a green and resilient Europe was also enhanced.
Usue Aspiazu, student from the University of the Basque Country (Spain) is visiting the University of Potsdam (Germany). Usue, as a member of POLYMAT, one of our partner institutions in the NanoPAT project, will stay for one month (June 2021) at the innoFSPEC laboratory in Golm to receive training in PDW spectroscopy. This acquired knowledge about the PDW measurement technique will be used to monitor the NanoPAT polymer synthesis processes.
