The CRM_InnoNet consortium has carried out a mapping exercise to produce a ‘critical raw material substitution profile’ for each of the materials listed as critical by the European Commission (the EU-14 list). Each raw materials profile provides a detailed analysis of the uses and discusses current substitutability of each material.
The authors invite feedback on the raw material profiles. Please email any comments to criticalrawmaterials@ktn-uk.org. Feedback will be considered until August 2014.
