DSM DYNEEMA FORECASTS MATERIALS INNOVATIONS TO PLAY KEY ROLE IN ADDRESSING TRENDS IN ARMOR PROTECTION FOR HELICOPTERS AND BOATS
Stanley, N.C. - 11 June 2014 - Emerging global trends are impacting the operating environment of light tactical interdiction vehicles for military, law enforcement and homeland security operations, particularly helicopters and patrol boats. As they engage in higher-risk scenarios, such as supporting clandestine operations and penetrating inner harbors and coastlines, these vehicles require enhanced armor protection that won't compromise their speed, agility, range and payload capacity. Simply adding armor made from traditional materials such as ceramics, glass, aramid and even polyethylene is no longer enough, whereas innovative, lightweight materials that can deliver top protection can optimize vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, capacity and maneuverability. DSM Dyneema, the manufacturer of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMwPE) fiber, branded as Dyneema®, and a world leader in life protection materials and high-performance fibers, sees next-generation materials technologies as an important part of the solution. This view is supported by industry experts who predict the use of UHMwPE materials in armor applications will show double-digit growth in the next five years.

First results confirm drug discovery potential of the European Lead Factory
Launched in January 2013, the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI)-funded* project gives the entire European research community access to a unique, high quality and extensive lead-like compound library, the Joint European Compound Library (JECL). The European Lead Factory also offers the cutting-edge infrastructure and expertise needed to screen against novel biological targets. This creates an outstanding opportunity to discover novel compounds, summarized in a so-called Qualified Hit List (QHL), for use either as pharmacological tools or as the starting points for drug discovery projects.
