FREE WEBINAR: THE MODIFICATION OF PLA FIBRES – BY IFG & TKCT

Join us as Dr. Christoph Burgstaller from TCKT discusses his latest projects in the modification of PLA fibres with IFG.

Managing Director and Head of Research at the Transfercenter für Kunststofftechnik (TCKT) in Wels, Austria. He has been involved in application-oriented research in the plastics technology sector since 2004 and completed his doctoral studies in chemical engineering at Johannes Kepler University, Linz, in 2006 with a thesis on the structure-property relationships of wood plastic composites. Since 2004, he has been involved in application-oriented research, including at PCCL and TCKT. He has now led more than 35 different research projects with industry participation, which dealt with various topics such as property modification and recycling. He is the head of TCKT since mid-2015 and in addition to this is a professor of plastics engineering at the Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences since October 2021.

His work deals with structure-processing-property relationships of thermoplastic materials in general, with a main focus on composites and blends, as well as recycling. He is the author of more than 45 peer-reviewed journal articles and more than 90 conference papers and a senior member of the “Society of Plastics Engineers”.
