Development and scaled Implementation of sAfe by design tools and Guidelines for multicOmponent aNd hArn nanomateriaLs (DIAGONAL)


The Institute of Chemical Engineering Sciences of the Foundation for Research & Technology – Hellas (FORTH/ICE-HT), located in Patras, Greece, is partner in the recently funded H2020 project Diagonal (953152), with total budget of 6 million Euros, to bring Safe by Design (SbD) knowledge and tools to a development stage which can be implemented in the MultiComponent NanoMaterials (MCNMs) and High-Aspect Ratio Nanoparticles (HARNs) related industries.

Diagonal brings brings together 22 partners from 12 European countries and the US: 10 Universities and Research Organizations (Universidad de Burgos-coordinator, Wageningen University, DTI, CNRS, ITENE, FORTH/ICE-HT, ISQ, LIST, IZES and the International institution BNN), 2 Large Enterprises (OCSiAl and Rina) and  10 SMEs (Monolithos, Creative Nano, Graphene XT, 4n, Iris, QSARlab, Novam,  Vireo Advisors, Neovili and Brimatech)

Principal Investigator for FORTH/ICE-HT is Dr. G. Voyatzis. The teams of Dr. V. Dracopoulos, Dr M. Klapa, Prof. N. Karamanos and Assoc. Prof. K. Andrikopoulos are also participating in the project.
