Kick-Off Meeting (KOM)

The Kick-Off Meeting (KOM) of the BUTTERFLIES project was successfully held on June 11 in Brussels!

This ambitious project brings together partners of excellence with the aim of developing and validating advanced additive manufacturing (AM) processes using chitin and chitosan - natural and sustainable materials - to create high-performance, biocompatible products with a strong focus on biomedical applications.

Among the main objectives of the project are:

  • Optimization of chitin nanocrystal binders (ChNC) for Binder Jetting (BJT).
  • Development of photocurable chitosan bio-polymers for Two-Photon Polymerization (2PP).
  • Design of new AM equipment.
  • Integration of AI/ML tools for process optimization.
