MAGENTA

MAGnetic nanoparticle based liquid ENergy materials for Thermoelectric device Applications

MAGENTA proposes a brand new technological path in thermoelectric materials research for waste-heat recovery applications. The originality of the project is based on the newly discovered thermal-to-electric energy conversion capacity of ionic-liquids and ferrofluids ; i.e., colloidal dispersions of magnetic nanoparticles in ionic liquids (IL-FFs). It is an interdisciplinary and cross-sector R&D project combining concepts and techniques from physics, chemistry and electrochemistry with an active participation from 3 SME and 1 industrial partners implicated in the materials supply-chain, the device design/ performance and the market-uptake assessment.
