Development of a single or multilayer PE film with insecticide properties for industrial use.
SA 42799(2015/X) The subject of the project is research and development involving the development of a new single or multilayer PE polyolefin film with insecticide characteristics. In the course of the tender procedure, a scientific unit with category B was selected, to be entrusted with the execution of all the work. This unit is the Institute of Leather Industry in Łódź. A conditional agreement concerning the performance of the research service was concluded with the subcontractor on 17.05.2019. The project will be implemented within 7 months, from 1 September 2019 to 31 March 2020, and its implementation will be divided into 5 tasks: 1. Preparatory work (1 m-c) 2. Preliminary experimental work (2 m-ce). 3. Technological tests (1 m-c). 4. Assessment of the properties of the product prototype obtained (2 m-ce). 5. Preparation of the final report (1 m-c). The result of the project will be the development and manufacture of a new, single or multilayer PE film with insecticide properties in the form of a prototype, which will be a product innovation. PVC films that affect insects are available on the market, but their properties are only repellent and not insecticide. The project will also result in the development of new film production technology, which will translate into process innovation at least on a national scale.
