On December 14th and 15th, CANOE hosted the CARBOPREC consortium for the final meeting. After 4 years of R&D, it was the opportunity to show all the technologies developed during the project (from extraction of bio-based products, spinning, carbonization, to the integration of these novel carbon fibers inside composite materials) and to get also some feedback on the automotive parts as well as wind blades parts used in demonstrators. The morning of 12/15 was dedicated to composite demonstrators manufacturing using acrylic resin and carbon fabrics in CANOE Bersol facilities. The goal was to allow all partners to get familiar with composite processing technologies.

In CANOE, developments of new precursors for carbon fibers are still going on with DISTRUC, CAPONE and FORCE projects.
