Beatrice

Biobased dEgradable flAme reTardant pRInted eCo-elEctronics - BEATRICE aims to produce environmentally friendly electronic substrates for rigid and flexible materials and devices made of high-performance composites with customised thermal, electrical and mechanical properties for use in electronics, which is part of the global trend towards heterogeneous integration. The overall aim is to initiate the production of sustainable printed circuit boards for electronic assemblies to replace the usual standard material (such as FR4) and to enable a new design principle for recycling, which can now be produced and manufactured entirely in Europe. The dual benefit would reduce the environmental impact of the plastics involved and improve the recycling of strategic metals, reducing Europe's dependence on external sources and factors.
