From chemistry to transport performance: analysing granulate and film for better transport protection
Gain insights into how chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of PE films relate to transport
performance of palletised loads, with special attention to the effects of PE reprocessing
This workshop will take place on campus Diepenbeek (Agoralaan building D, 3590 Diepenbeek) and runs from 10:00 to 16:30, following this agenda:
- 10:00 Welcome with coffee and cake

- 12:00 Sandwich lunch and soup in the winter garden
- 13:00 Lab tour at ACC in the Science Tower (incl. demos on DSC, GC-MS, microspectroscopy analysis of gels)
- 14:00 Short walk to the Technology Centre
- 14:30 Lab tour at MPR&S (incl. demos on transport simulation, mechanical and thermal testing of transport films)
- 15:30–16:30 Closing networking session with drinks and cake
This workshop is organised in the context of the TETRA-CORNET MultiRec project, which focuses on the impact of multiple recycling steps on the properties of polyethylene films.
