The proyect

Objectives

TORNADO project will contribute to the transition to a safer circular economy by designing new water and oil repellent biobased coatings avoiding the use of PFAS.

Three different but interconnected innovations will be followed:

  • NEW BIOBASED BIOMONOMERS WITH WATER AND OIL REPELLENCE.
  • NEW BIOBASED ORGANIC AND HYBRID COATINGS WITH WATER AND OIL REPELLENCE.
  • DESIGN OF NEW COATINGS FOLLOWING SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE CRITERIA.

The coatings will be validated in three different sectors, textiles, packaging and kitchenware.

A roadmap to assist to the standardization routes of new coatings in each use case will be developed.

Communication and dissemination of project results will guide industry in the implementation of SSbD approaches.
