Chemical markers to improve traceability of children’s products as a solution to anti-counterfeiting – TRACE4FAKE

Is it possible to manufacture children's products using anti-counterfeiting materials, and is it possible to do so while avoiding any toxicological risk to the user?
The implementation of chemical markers in the materials used for the manufacture of the children's product allows a product to be traced quickly and economically, through photoluminescent properties, among others, which can be modulated according to the specific needs of each company and/or product.

Development of high-frequency communications devices using advanced additive manufacturing and coating technologies – CAFTAM

Current radio communication systems are dealing with the progressive saturation of the electromagnetic spectrum which, together with increasing bandwidth requirements (transmission speeds), is forcing systems to migrate to higher frequency bands.

Development of formulation to reduce the effect of PAHs in the raw materials of child products.

Polycyclic aromatics hydrocarbons (PAH) are composed by the incomplete combustion and the pyrolysis of the organic material. Both natural sources (forest fires, volcanic eruption, etc.), and anthropogenic sources (vehicle emissions, catalytic oil cracking, industrial combustions of fossil fuels, etc.) contribute to the release of PAH in the environment.
