For over 15 years, INISMa has developed strong expertise in refractory castables, responding both to the global demand for these materials and to the needs of the industrial network located in Wallonia and north of France, which includes manufacturers, installers, and end-users of refractory castables.
The laboratory is equipped with all the devices and equipment necessary for the development of new products and their characterisation, from raw materials to end products.
The laboratory thus has the material and equipment necessary for the development of new products and for characterization from raw materials to finished products (before, during and after heat treatment).nt of doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows.
As part of the 3DFORMWORKS project, INISMa acts as the lead partner, responsible for the scientific, technical, administrative, and financial coordination of the project. It is also in charge of formulating a low-carbon refractory cement-based ink, producing 3D demonstrators, and carrying out all characterisation steps, from the fresh state to post-printing thermomechanical testing.
