Research & Development
The Interdisciplinary Research Institute of
Toulouse (Institut de la recherche interdisciplinarire de
Toulouse, IRIT) is a not-for-profit research organization. Its
basic interests are to encourage studies and research on the state
of the art science and technology, and research on the impacts of the current development of science and technology, in
particular, modern biotechnology (such as
food
metabonomics)and organic standards, on human society (such as
Organic
Ecology). IRIT provides
a forum for intellectual exchanges in different natural science,
technology, agro-industry, social science, law, and business
domains.
To realize the above work, IRIT is oriented to
multidisciplinary research on the interface and interaction
between science and technology and its social ramifications. IRIT
has been keeping to attract scientists and researchers from
different domains all over the world, and encourage them to work
together on various RTD projects. All of the projects have
been, or are being jointly carried out via local and especially international
collaborations (
Refer
to our EU FP6 and FP7 partner website ).
"Call
for proposals" and "Position
available" wherein applicable are denoted under the
title of particular project.
Refer to our News
page for information about our RTD programs, policy-making
research and conferences.

Natural Fibre
Reinforced Composites (NFRC) can be made in suitable kinds of
polymer combining with flax, cotton, wood, agricultural plant straw,
etc. NFRC are thought of as a substitute for glass fibre,talcum
powder, asbestos, and so on, and have many unique properties: low
density, recyclable ,degradable, environmentally friendl and from
renewable source.
This research
centre aims to develop natural
NFRC
specially applied
in automobile industry.
