Laboratory of Material Technologies Faenza

The ENEA Laboratory of Material Technologies Faenza (TEMAF) conducts R&D and engineering activities, mainly in the field of advanced ceramic and composite materials (CMC, PMC), for several applications: energy production, energy recovery, transports, aerospace, biomedical, construction, chemical and manufacturing industries. In particular, the main activities concern:

• research and development of structural and functional ceramic materials (monolithic, composite and coatings) and related production processes up to the creation of prototypes
• research and development of innovative composite materials with a polymeric and/or preceramic matrix with characteristics of recyclability and fire resistance
• engineering of innovative components and technological transfer of production processes, also based on 3D printing technologies (LDM - Liquid Deposition Modeling, DLP - Digital Light Processing)
• thermomechanical characterization of materials and component qualification
• microstructural and physico-chemical characterization of ceramic, composite and metallic materials.

Head of the Laboratory: Flavio Caretto
