Woven Textile Structures with Differentiated Covering for Applications in Agriculture (12 RO 74DQ 3O5Y)
A Romanian institute developed functional agro-textiles for agriculture, by nature (UV stabilized polyethylene), structure (specific cover degree, simple/complex armure) and properties: air and water permeability, durability, easily to reinforce the textile composites, easily to be manufactured as covers for agriculture. The institute is interested in finding research organisations and industrial partners for developing the project proposal under different types of co-operation (to be discussed)

This romanian institute developed functional agro-textiles for agriculture, by nature (UV stabilized polyethylene), structure (specific cover degree, simple/complex armure) and properties: air and water permeability, durability, easily to reinforce the textile composites, easily to be manufactured as covers for agriculture.
Production enhancing agro-textiles term of the cover degrees, ranged between 35 ... 90%, with average distances between the warp and weft threads, of 0.26 ... 0.71 mm (smaller than the size of an insect).
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) agro-textiles with specific structures, suitable as they are, as reinforcements, as manufactured covers made of for plant protection (against excessive heat, hail, insects) for mulching, etc
Innovative Aspects:
* Production enhancing agro-textiles term of the cover degrees;
* Functional for applications in agriculture in the raw state, as composite reinforcements, as stable textile materials and textile composites, easily to be manufactured into covers.
Degree of development:
