Defining requirements for new furan-based polymers: challenges and expected outcomes

In the dynamic landscape of polymer development, the FURIOUS project team is dedicated to defining a new set of furan-based polymers. This endeavour requires precision, creativity, and adherence to stringent requirements. 

In this article, we will present the FURIOUS demonstrators, outline their requirements and challenges, and discuss the solutions the consortium is developing. 

FURIOUS at EUBCE 2024: Showcasing Innovations in Bio-Based Materials

FURIOUS Project Takes the Stage

We were honoured to be invited by the Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) to share our progress at the IBO.2 session of the European Biomass Conference and Exhibition. This opportunity placed us alongside other innovative projects such as PERFECOAT, THERMOFIRE, and the ELLIPSE Project.

The revolution of furan-based plastics is here!

In an era when environmental concerns have reached a crescendo, the search for eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plastics has intensified. We need to look for promising alternatives to fossil-based plastics while preserving the characteristics that conventional plastics have: lightweight, durability, affordable prices, among other characteristics. 

The FURIOUS project will help in finding the way towards new bio-based polymers that can be the constituent of revolutionary bio-based plastics.
