Ibiolab Technical program

The workprogram is divided in 11 workpackages:

• 9 are dedicated to R&I activities (WP1-9),
• 1 to training activities (WP10),
• 1 to management activities (WP11).

The main objective of the R&I activities is to develop new base lubricants, new bioadditives and new formulation of biolubricants through the development of new processes in order to increase the performance of the biolubricants, and to decrease their costs. The application targeted are: Chainsaw oils, metal working fluids, demoulding agents, two-stroke oils, hydraulic oils and greases.

The figure presents the scientific approach of the IBIOLAB project.
