International Partnership for Advanced Coatings by Thermal Spraying

Objective

IPACTS will develop an EU-China network for surface engineering research by uniting activities among 4 top ranking European and Chinese universities. 28 researchers will be exchanged and trained with latest techniques covering the complete cycle of thermal spraying research from coating process, structure and application. IPACTS will set the foundation stones for long-term strategic collaboration between EU and China to confront the challenge of sustainable materials and low carbon-emission manufacturing in a global framework.
