About
This project focuses on developing sustainable solutions for wind turbine rotor blades using vitrimer-based materials. It aims to enhance the recyclability and end-of-life management of blades through innovative design, recycling, and debonding technologies. By leveraging the dynamic properties of vitrimers, the project seeks to create rotor blades that are easier to repair, recycle, and disassemble, contributing to a circular and environmentally friendly wind energy industry.
