Metrology and testing methods to determine the properties of multifunctional materials under different operation conditions are essential engineering tools in materials development. Europe-wide efforts to help harmonise measurement and testing methods, in order to prepare the future standards with regard to the new knowledge-based materials can represent a major contribution to the internal market.

MISSION

Sixth Framework Programme Specific Support Action

EC-INCO-CT-2005-016414

A large variety of analytical reference methods are needed to enact policies of the EU and to provide hands-on scientific support towards harmonisation and interaction with the trading partners of the EU, and in particular with Candidate Countries. These methods undergo a full validation, meaning that the performance characteristics are extensively established and they fulfil the requirements for reliability and accuracy.

MISSION

Sixth Framework Programme Specific Support Action

EC-INCO-CT-2005-016414

To organise and co-ordinate on national level multidisciplinary study, training, expert activities (expertise, consults of end-users), EU collaborations on chemical analysis, physical methods of characterisation, as well as certification of multifunctional materials with environmental impact.

To organise training courses for PhD students and young scientists that shall apply, synthesise, characterise and certify multifunctional materials with environmental impact.

What should be done?Establishment of contacts and integration

with European and regional bodies and scientists dealing with the application and characterisation of multifunctional materials with environmental impact.:

Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements - Joint Research Centre, Geel, Belgium

Materials Science Institute, Technical University Darmstadt, Germany

Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), Germany

Other?

MISSION

Sixth Framework Programme Specific Support Action

EC-INCO-CT-2005-016414

Providing expert consultations on the characterisation of multifunctional materials. New materials should be produced and certified in accordance with internationally accepted guidelines, e.g. from the International Standards Organisation (ISO).

Training and capacity building of young researchers through PhD thesis, postdoctoral study, exchange of long and short herm visiting scientists. The fields are chemical analysis, metrology in chemistry, certification of materials, all of them in conformity with CEN and ISO standards. Training/advice on traceability and uncertainty evaluation of chemical measurement results.
