Aimplas presents the first F3 plant materials race car
September 2, 2009
Aimplas participated in the development and manufacture of the previous broadcaster of the F3 using materials from renewable sources. For its manufacture, the Institute combined properties of jute fabric and resin from soybean oil.
The single-seater 'WorldFirst' is part of an initiative led by the University of Warwick (United Kingdom) which aims to demonstrate the validity of materials from renewable sources in the most demanding conditions, thus reducing the dependence on oil for the manufacture of polymers and betting on more sustainable production processes.
