WP - NMP


• NMP-2009-2.1-1 Nano-structured materials based on graphene • Technical content/scope: In recent years nanostructured films have become a major research area, with

applications in sectors such as electronics, optical and magnetic devices, protection coatings, electrochemistry and catalysis. The availability of graphene, i.e. of ultimate carbon films of monoatomic thickness, opens a strong opportunity to develop a new family of nanostructured materials. Radical advances in their engineering would make them very promising, for example, for the development of post-silicon electronics.

• The research focus is the study of nanostructured materials based on graphene as a building block. Research is needed on band gap engineering, high electronic mobility, edge effects, functionalisation of the new materials, interactions with substrates, etc. Potentially new electronic properties should be explored, that could result for example from dimensionality or from the existence of stable vacancies, adsorbed atoms, or atomic impurities. New opportunities could also be opened by the change in physical or chemical properties induced by geometrical manipulations of graphene sheets such as folding, rolling, stitching, or precise and oriented cut-out. Safety issues in the handling of nanostructured materials should be addressed. Fullerenes and carbon nanotubes are excluded.

• Funding scheme: Small or medium-scale focused research projects.• Special features: In order to ensure industrial relevance and impact of the research effort, the active

participation of industrial partners represents an added value to the activities and this will be reflected in the evaluation.

• Expected impact: Industrial applications in the IT sector (including electrodes, flat panel displays, optoelectronic devices, integrated circuits), as well as in catalysis, chemical sensors and hydrogen storage.

SM 4.3.3: Networked production• No topics foreseen for the year 2009

WP - NMP


• NMP-2009-3.2-1 Innovative pathways for sustainable chemical production• Technical content/scope: Within the multi-annual strategy for promoting sustainable chemistry, the aim is to achieve

more eco-efficient chemical syntheses and corresponding processes with high resource efficiency and reduced amounts of waste and emissions. This complies with the continuous transformation of energy and capital intensives sectors developing safe environmentally friendly reactions, products, and processes that will improve competitiveness within the chemical industry.

• The high level group on Competitiveness of the European Chemical Industry set up by the Commission in 2007[1] recognises that this enabling sector in Europe is vitally important as a provider of chemical solutions and as a key player in the search for sustainable development.

• The research project should investigate novel synthetic reactions for the manufacturing of safer chemicals and address domains such as specific transformations of functional groups and the use of highly selective multifunctional catalysts which are combined with alternatives to traditional solvents. Particular attention should be given to elimination or substitution type reactions, which are among the least atom-economical transformations (i.e. with undesired products remaining at the end of the reaction). Bio-catalytic routes are not considered a priority for this call topic.

• Projects should lead to cooperation between branches of chemistry that have not traditionally worked closely together in order to integrate the most recent knowledge gained in this area, especially, the understanding of structural/functional relationships at molecular level.

• Funding scheme: Large scale integrating Collaborative Projects.• Specific features: In order to ensure industrial relevance and impact of the research effort, the active participation of

industrial partners represents an added value to the activities and this will be reflected in the evaluation. Priority will be given to proposals showing a clear industrial leadership and significant demonstration activities , in particular to ensure a proper exploitation and dissemination of project results.

• Expected impacts: Expected results should provide a strategic advantage and added value to society, in terms of competitiveness, reduction of environmental footprint and industrial safety. Projects should contribute to the renewal of scientific and technological breakthrough in synthesis. 25-30% improvement in resource efficiency and yield is expected combined with a global target of zero-waste production for at least 20% of existing reactions.
