Microwave and Carbons for Technological Applications & Manufacturing of Carbons using Additive Technologies (MCAT)


The group of Microwaves and Carbons for Technological Applications and Manufacturing Carbons using Additive Technologies (MCAT) is part of the Department of Sustainable Chemical Processes at INCAr/csic. The research carried out by this group is focused on the use of microwave heating for different technological applications related to carbon materials and on the synthesis and design of carbon materials, using additive manufacturing processes (3D printing). Additionally, different applications of these materials related to energy and the environment are also investigated.
