ADHESIVES COULD PLAY A KEY ROLE IN REDUCING CARBON FOOTPRINT OF RENEWABLE ENERGY
September 23rd, 2024
Amid growing calls for higher performance adhesives to drive forward the renewable energy sector, their ability to extend the life of equipment and aid in their dismantling are proving just as valuable.
Indeed, a key research focus is on such adhesives’ debonding qualities. Current adhesive solutions challenge renewable energy equipment recycling processes because they keep dissimilar materials together during dismantling.
