Great interest of Wood K plus at Long Night of Research 2016

On Friday, 22nd April 2016 Wood K plus took the opportunity to present the comprehensive research-competence of the centre to the visitors of the Long Night of Research at the locations Linz, Klagenfurt and Tulln.

 

Wood K plus presented the following topics at the three locations:

 

Tulln:

Hands-on station in cooperation with the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences on the issue „What are wood materials and how are these wood materials produced?“

 

Klagenfurt:

Together with pupils the station on the topic „How to process?“ was presented. The goal is to understand how different parameters of (production-)processes can influence the properties of the generated products.

 

Linz:

Two stations with the titles „What is a Bio-Composite and what are its properties?“ and „What potential do Bio-Polymers have?“

 

The large number of visitors and the interesting discussions with the visitors have showed the wide public interest in the research of Wood K plus. The Long Night of Research generated enthusiasm among young kids already.

 

Therefore the Long Night of Research 2016 was a perfect platform to present Wood K plus and some of its research activities to the general public and to maybe future young researchers as well as to other companies.
