Description
R & D Institute (RDI), formaly within the programme Elastomers, is the central R & D and interlinking institution of Savatech d.o.o. industry, intended primarily for development of new products and technologies and investigation of materials. Besides, the endeavor of RDI is directly associated with the improvement of the existing products and optimization of the existing technologies, as well as some other activitities, such as elimination of certain operational difficulties in the production, solution of various ccomplaint problems, problems of quality control, metrology, etc. Due to occupational specifities, RDI consists of four departments. Development projects for new products and technologies, as well as a variety of research projects are carried out in the Research and Development Department - Independent Researchers. Development and Technology Department is primarily engaged in development and optimization of rubber compounds. All the laboratory work is performed in the Central Laboratory, consisting of two specialized laboratories: Physics Laboratory comprising a pilot unit and laboratory for armatures and Chemistry Laboratory. Informational activities are carried out in the Indoc Center with Technical Library. All the RDI''s departments are linked with one another and with Technology Development Units responsible for operative development of individual Savatech''s programmes. RDI employs a larger number of experts of different profiles: physicists, chemists, chemical and mechanical engineers. Presently, four of them possess Ph.D. and four M.Sc. Some RDI workers are qualified to engage in mentorships at students'' practical works, B.Sc. graduation works, probations, M.Sc and Ph.D theses, and this is regularly practiced. Although the research work in Sava is mainly of the applied science or purpose-aimed nature, some fundamental research is occasionally needed to acquire and understand new ideas. As particularly important for Savatech''s development needs, two general research directions were emphasized, namely the field of phenomenological and molecular rheology of polymers and the field of structural characterization of polymers and other relevant materials. The first field, dealing with relations between stresses and strains or strain rates of material, is in practice associated with all phases of polymer (mainly rubber in Savatech) processing, as well as with the properties of finished (vulcanized rubber) products. The second field is essential for understanding the behaviour of materials, since all the physical and chemical properties result from their molecular and morphological structure. Within the frame of the foregoing research directions several concrete R & D projects have been executed, including the three-year fundamental research project entitled Effect of Molecular and Morphological Structure and Additives on the Physical Properties of Elastomers, which was partly subsidized by the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport of the Republic of Slovenia. Research is presently running on thermoplastic elastomers and polymer blends. All the RDI''s research activities, however, are not associated only with the above-mentioned directions. Investigations are also carried out in the field of thermal properties and transport phenomena in polymers, specifically thermal conduction, gas and liquid permeation and diffusion, electrical properties, as well as certain problems of physical chemistry of polymers. Research work augments also in the field of polymer processing. In the past few years Central Laboratory has also received the control function of rubber compound release, as well as annual control of all raw materials. Although publishing activity is not the primary task of RDI, its workers possess many home and international publications and have actively participated at a number of conferences and symposia. In the past, RDI had for fifteen years published the then Sava''s technical journal Obzornik.
