Mr Roy Brooks
-
"It’s data, Jim, but not as we need it"
-
Digital access to materials data is pivotal for advancing bio-based materials adoption within industry. It empowers product designers by providing real-time information on material properties, enabling the creation of innovative and sustainable designs. Manufacturing engineers benefit from streamlined processes and enhanced material selection, facilitating efficient production of eco-friendly products, ultimately accelerating the transition to a sustainable future.
Proffesor Alysia Garmulewicz
- Open data for biomaterials development
- The talk will explore how open data can accelerate the development of compostable biobased materials that prevent plastic pollution and help draw down carbon. I will introduce Materiom's open-access platform that provides data on biomaterial recipes and performance, helping scientists and entrepreneurs quickly and easily find solutions for single-use plastics and textiles.
