Biopolymer database – Cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hanover
The main problem for biopolymers is missing or at least, non standardized material data. In order to improve the situation, M-Base Engineering + Software GmbH with the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hanover started a project to create a Biopolymer Database which will contain a full overview of the market.
The guideline is the well known CAMPUS® database. The new database will allow quick and easy access to information about biopolymer producers, contact persons and material properties, like mechanical properties, permeability, degradation or processing behaviour. Due to an enormous high interest from the market a pre-release of the project results has already been published on the internet, including exclusively data provided by biopolymer manufactures which are present at the market. The free pre-release is available under
www.materialdatacenter.com.
The main goals of the following activities will be to collect complete information about available biopolymers, using uniform test standards and to generate comparable and complete material data.
