Lithium Titanate Batteries: Driving the energy revolution with safety and efficiency
Lithium Titanate Batteries (LTO) are gaining increasing popularity due to their advantages over other technologies traditionally used in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This preference is growing for four main factors: High charging and discharging speeds Longer lifespan The ability to operate over a wide range of temperatures High safety and reliability Currently, these batteries are utilized […]
Regenerative braking it’s affecting your brake pads more than you think
Regenerative braking it’s affecting your brake pads more than you think From an engineering point of view, aBrakerefers to a device that primarily performs the function of braking or stopping a moving object, such as a vehicle. Going back to physics, a brake refers to converting kinetic energy into other types of energy. And this […]
How will Euro 7 affect brake pads?
En rimsa, we embrace the challenges of Euro 7 regulation in the brake and friction materials industry as innovative solutions. In the following, we will delve into the implications of Euro 7 regulation and how our solutions are contributing to addressing these challenges. Euro standards and their evolution Within the framework of emissions regulations in […]
Fibers and their different variables when choosing the right one
Type of application Fiber serves different functions depending on the type of element in which it is used. For pavements, fibers like r hook 50 can replace traditional mesh for covering structural requirements such as bending, punching, and fatigue forces. In the case of shotcrete, which is used in tunnels and slopes, fibers are dosed […]

Our participation in the “Accelera el Creixement” program
and how it has influenced the business growth of our team, the impetus it has given to the way we think and act strategically as a company. And once again, we took away a great experience from this program and from all the guests. #AcceleraElCreixement is a program run by PIMEC and the Barcelona Provincial […]
SAE Brake Colloquium & Exhibition 2022
It’s a pleasure to be able to present to the friction material industry the solutions offered by rimsa, also through our Innovamat joint venture, to help the industry overcome present and future challenges. On behalf of Innovamat we will showcase the results of some of our lines of research, which address precisely some of these […]
Lion HD Project
– What problems come to solve the electrification of the fleet. Greenhouse gas emissions are growing daily due to industrialization and the burning of fossil fuels in both industry and vehicles. Among the gases that cause this effect, the greatest contribution is due to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.In this sense, the electrification of the mobile […]
How limitation on brake emissions by Euro 7 may affect the friction industry?
In the context of the Green Deal and the objectives of “carbon neutrality” and “zero pollution”, the European Commission has committed to reducing current emission limits, from all sources. Brake wear is a significant contributor to respirable particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5), particularly in areas with high traffic density and frequent braking, and up to […]
