Project:
Use of recycling of recycled tyres and polyurethane foams
Registration number:SS06020039
Realization period:01.04. 2023 – 31.12. 2025
Leader at TUL:Ing. Jiří Bobek, Ph.D.
The project proposal assumes the development of new polymer composite materials based on polymer matrix and technologically processed worn tyres and polyurethane foams. The new materials will be used to manufacture a variety of products, in particular through thermoplastic injection moulding technology. At the same time, the materials will be recyclable and reusable. This will eliminate the need to landfill tyres at the end of their useful life, but also the need to landfill polyurethane foams contained, for example, in refrigerators, freezers and water heaters, etc.
This project is funded with state support from the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic
