New Materials for Extreme Environments

The ExtreMat Integrated Project targeted on the creation of new multifunctional materials being beyond reach with conventional incremental materials development only. Based on an integrated approach, ExtreMat will dramatically pushed forward the limits in materials technology and provided and industrialized new knowledge-based materials and compounds for top-end and new applications in extreme environments.

Co-ordination of three workpackages:

• Development of protective coatings with aerospace applications
• Development of metal – ceramic joining for aerospace applications
• Study of new materials with neutron and X-ray scattering techniques
