There is a continuous interest in the development of materials that can be multifunctional. The field of lightweight multifunctional composite materials can revolutionise various domains such as energy, automotive, aerospace etc., Development of lightweight multifunctional composite materials is a domain of prime interest and has attracted a huge interest among the researchers. In this context, InnovMMC project consists in framing a network of consortium from 5 different European countries with their multidisciplinary nature ranging from computational modelling, materials fabrication to prototype development. This 9 month-long project will be related to addressing the call to DT-NMBP-01-2018 proposal to Horizon 2020 addressing Open innovation Hubs for lightweight nanoenabled multifunctional composite materials and components. This Innovation action program will be lead by ICMCB-CNRS and will work in cohesion with LaSie-France; I2M-TEFLE, France; M/S Composite Innovation, France; M/S Schneider Electric- France; M/S Tecnalia- Spain; ESI group-Spain; M/S LAN PRINTECH-Spain; M/S JEGAN- Spain; EMPA- Switzerland; M/S Dr. Fritsch Powder Shaping technology- Germany; M/S Cambridge Nanosystem- UK…(to be added after confirmation of participation). InnovMMC shows the multidisciplinary research and applications utilizing the light weight metal alloys. The scientific scope of InnovMMC includes research on developing light weight composites based on Aluminum, Magnesium, Silver and Copper metal alloys reinforced with carbonaceous nano(micro) particles with internal sensors that can store and communicate the obtained data. The technological applications of InnovMMC are polyvalent such as: • Reducing weight and improving thermal control of the electronic components for transport industries • Improved durability of monitoring sensor components • Smart cables and electrical components • Self-diagnostics and self-monitoring materials development With the MRSEI-InnovMMC will help in organizing workshops and visit to the consortium members lab that will assist in two significant aspects such as working towards the proof-of concept and enlargement of the consortium with new international partners. Simultaneously, MRSEI-InnovMMC will help in preparing for the DT-NMBP-01-2018 proposal submission and train the young scholars of the partners lab in the domain of InnovMMC. The collaboration between the InnovMMC consortium members was initiated since many years will further be strengthened by their international co-operation through InnovMMC. The number of industrial partners will also assist in identifying and providing the regulatory, economic and technical barriers. The consortium of InnovMMC in addition to participation in DT-NMBP-01-2018 proposal, will further fortify their ties through other European projects to develop light weight metal composites.
