Why is cork one of the most important materials in spacecraft?
Due to the fact that it is an excellent thermal insulator. When a rocket or spacecraft is launched into space, its structure is subjected to temperatures exceeding one thousand degrees centigrade. The same occurs on the return to Earth, as soon as the spacecraft enters the atmosphere. Just a coating of a cork compound…
Main Objective
The club's main goals were to reduce maintenance costs and guarantee safety in sports activities, as well as improving players' performance. These objectives were achieved through the substitution of the rubber layer by a cork infill that have made it possible to eliminate the agglutination of granulates, unpleasant…
5 – Greater safety in sports activities
Artificial turf with a cork infill offers major impact absorption capacity and presents considerable adherence in various atmospheric conditions. These properties reduce the risk of falling or slippage and, consequently, the risk of abrasion.
Benefits
Cork-based infills are designed to enable functional suitability, striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and environmental compatibility, material durability and multi-functionality. This solution offers advantages for users compared to other types of infills: it is odourless, with more natural appearance and…
Advantages
Using a cork infill brings back a part of nature to the artificial turf systems. Cork is a natural and ecological material that offers several advantages if compared with the traditional infill solutions, namely the reduction of maintenance costs, the more natural aspect and feel, the absence of environmental toxicity…
