During the tour of the ultra-modern laboratory infrastructure, scientists from the Institute for Sustainable and Ecological and Ecological Chemistry provide insights into how chemical research makes an important contribution to the sustainable use of resources and the avoidance of environmental pollution. Because: regardless of whether they are working on a combustion, electric or hydrogen engine, lubricants are needed for cars, aeroplanes and many other machines. At the Automotive Research Centre Niedersachsen (NFF), scientists are therefore researching not only innovative, customised lubricants, but also the use of renewable raw materials and are focussing not only on mobility but also on the buildings of the future.
