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 […]

rimsa explores new insights into Li-ion batteries
Unsustainable societal development and rapid global industrialization have caused a high stress on energy resources, particularly on carbon fuels. In this context, the transition of the conventional automotive industry into a more sustainable and environmentally friendly technology is crucial to achieving a more sustainable future. In that role batteries are a key factor to overcome […]

Brake wear enviro impact; trends to combat them (part one)
HOLTSVILLE, N.Y. – A majority of attention, both in research and regulatory legislation, is primarily placed on exhaust-related pollution. During operation of a vehicle, particulate matter can also be emitted through mechanical processes, including tire and brake wear, and resuspension of road dust particles. These emissions are classified as non-exhaust emissions, and comprise a considerable […]
Environmental Impact of Polymer-Fiber Reinforced Concrete
The dosage of fibers in pavements can significantly affect the carbon footprint of construction, the amount of cement required for the same square surface is less when fibers are used. For this reason, the reinforcement of concrete with fibers is gaining importance in recent years to improve structures and because less cement is needed for […]
