The success of our researchers - Gold Medal for the best innovation in the field of new technologies

At the XVI International Salon of Inventions and New Technologies "New Time" in Sevastopol, the Russian Federation, in the competition of 27 registered countries, the team in which Milena Milošević and Jovanka Kovačina were engaged won the Gold Medal for the best innovation in the field of new technologies for the innovation "Eco-friendly technology for gel-coat and fireproofing material production using bio-renewable and waste materials."

The innovation is a joint work of the company Sinteza smola d.o.o., the Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy and the Institute of Chemistry, Technology and Metallurgy-National Institute of the Republic of Serbia. It represents the development of new ecologically and economically acceptable technologies to produce gel coatings and materials that reduce flammability based on unsaturated polyester resins from bio-renewable sources. The products can be applied in various industries (construction, mining, polymer processing, etc.). The authors of the innovation are Aleksandar Marinković, Milutin Milosavljević, Tihomir Kovačević, Jovanka Kovačina, Milena Milošević, Aleksandar Jovanović, Slobodan Petrović. The diploma is attached.
