Efficient recycling of plastic waste

The technology comprises the efficient production of recyclable plastics or other plastic fractions from structurally altered plastic waste.
Efficient bonding and connecting of silicone components

A process technology for creating strong and durable connections between silicone regions or parts is presented, which involves a specific combination of vacuum ultraviolet irradiation and tailored application of mechanical pressure.
Biobased adhesive formulation

A novel production method for a biobased adhesive, which comprises a tailored lignin structure as main component, is presented. The process technology overcomes the use of toxic phenol and formaldehyde, while the resulting adhesive exhibits superior physicochemical and mechanical properties.
On-chip solid-state Zn-air microbattery and method for its manufacture

A microimprint method for on-chip fabrication of Zn-air microbatteries is presented, which bypasses complications of catalyst incorporation on the chip at a target position and paves the way towards production of miniaturized, rechargeable energy sources.
