Processing and Performance

The Processing and Performance of Materials group of Eindhoven University of Technology provides education on and conducts research in the broad area of material technology, i.e. the industrial arts of manufacturing of polymer-based products.

"Bridge the gap from molecule via processing to product properties鈥� and back"

Design of polymer products and shaping processes benefit from a change from experimental trial-and-error to quantitative predictive capability. The main objective is to provide knowledge and models for the prediction and understanding of structure development during processing and the resulting final properties of polymeric products. These properties are determined by intrinsic (molecular) material parameters and, to a great extent, by the processing conditions.
