In the frame of capacity building various capacity building events will be organized, where the staff at FTPO and the interested researchers from other organizations in Slovenia and the broader region will benefit from the training provided by internationally leading experts in the field of polymer processing.

A series of 18 workshops will be organized, which will provide the team of the coordinating institution with increased knowledge and expertise on various topics. The workshops will consist of a theoretical and practical part; therefore they will be (co)organized at the location(s) of the beneficiary and associated partner institution(s) which has/have the highest know how and latest equipment necessary for the topic of a specific workshop. All four beneficiaries and one associated partner will contribute to the topics with their experts and their young researchers will attend the workshops. The impact of the events will be maximised by online streaming of the activities.

11th IPPT-TWINN WORKSHOP: Workshop on the processing of advanced fiber reinforced components

The first day of the 11th workshop occurred at Spanish National Reasearch Council (CSIC) in Madrid, Spain, where workshop participants got a brief overview on their research topics, research equipment, and collaboration between Aitiip and CSIC. The following two days took place at the partner institution Aitiip, Zaragoza, Spain. The first day at Aitiip started with a presentation of the institution's research topics and capabilities. It continued with introducing recycling processing technologies, presentation of pretreatments for recycling and presentation of mechanical recycling. After lunch the potential of extrusion-compounding for recycled materials and related post-processes as thermoplastic recycling technology were presented. For the last activity in the day, participants visited Tecnopackaging extrusion-compounding facilities. On the second day at Aitiip participants first visited the materials characterization laboratory, where they could see characterization and synthesis equipment, then they visited pilot plastic processing technologies that are dealing with valorisation of recycled materials into final product. After coffee break SSbD and circular principles were presented. And for the final part of the workshop participants got a look in alternative recycling technologies and different success stories and case studies for 3D printing.
