Roadmap Report Concerning the Use of Nanomaterials in the Automotive Sector

This report has the objective to give an overview on the use of nanomaterials in the automotive sector and has not the goal to be exhaustive. It will give to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) the possibility to have a concise description of the development in this sector. For this reason only some scientific details and technological explanations are presented.

This roadmap report has the main purpose to help SMEs which are in the process of looking for new materials with improved properties to be integrated in their new products and to give them a first list of relevant nanomaterials they should consider depending on the industrial applications foreseen, the time to market and the R&D capacity of the company.

The target group of users are SMEs, which are starting a strategic decision-making phase for new product development.

The main purposes are:

􀂃 To give an overview on relevant nanomaterials for industrial applications in the automotive sector at short, middle and long term.

􀂃 To give the actual level of development of the nanomaterials and an approximate evolution of it at short, middle and long term.

􀂃 To be adapted to SMEs.

The results are based on a database with information about more than 100 nanomaterials, which was developed in the frame of the EC-funded project NanoRoadSME. The database and the linked roadmapping tool were structured taking into account the results of a European Survey on more than 300 European SMEs, the results of several R&D surveys and industrial SWOT analysis as well as workshops and experts’ interviews.

Technology and market driven approaches were used to gather useful data into the database. It therefore contains relevant technical and economical information on nanomaterials which have future potential use in the automotive industry. This database is a new kind of instrument for dynamic technology roadmapping.
