SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE
Artificial Intelligence-Designed Thermoplastic Materials for Sustainable Packaging and Electronics
Artificial Intelligence-Designed Thermoplastic Materials for Sustainable Packaging and Electronics AIM-PACE will transform underutilized industrial side-streams and biogenic CO2 into high-performance, bio-based thermoplastics. The project combines microbial engineering, advanced computer simulations, and an agentic AI platform with multi-objective optimization to evolve current PHAs into materials with unprecedented combination of properties. These next-generation PHAs will make possible monomaterial packaging that replaces multilayer fossil-based structures, as well as wearable electronics that avoid the need for high filler-loaded plastics, cutting electronic waste at its source. Four demonstrators will validate both performance and manufacturability up to TRL 7: disposable electrodes, sensor housings, pill organizers, and industrial films/trays. Circularity is embedded from the start:
