Transformation and Agroressources Unit (Artois University site) (UTA)

Research unit - ULR 7519

Description

The activity of the UT&A unit focuses on the exploitation of organic matter from non-food agricultural production and agricultural and agri-food co-products in innovative molecules and materials since extraction, characterization, formulation and/or modulation of properties by an eco-responsible chemistry. The targeted fields of application are commodities (surfactants, additives, dyes, pigments, biopesticides, etc.), materials (plastics, concretes, composites) and biological applications (anti-oxidants, anti-microbials, etc.).
