BARU (Bartın University) adds another one to university-industry collaboration.
Bartın University (BARU), together with Bolu Abant İzzet Baysal University (BAIBU), signed a cooperation protocol with Yıldız Entegre, one of Turkey's leading brands in the forest products sector.
The protocol, signed by BARU Rector Prof. Dr. Orhan Uzun, BAIBU Rector Prof. Dr. Mustafa Alişarlı, and Yıldız Entegre Marketing and Product Development Deputy General Manager Melike Alkan, aims to develop more environmentally friendly product designs for the forest industry.
As an important example of university-industry collaboration, under the protocol, faculty members from BARU Bartın Faculty of Forestry Department of Forest Industrial Engineering and BAIBU Mudurnu Süreyya Astarcı Vocational School Department of Forestry will work on producing adhesive for board making more effectively and efficiently. Over the course of two years, research will be conducted on foaming thermoset resin and reducing formaldehyde emissions and adhesive usage.
Rector Uzun emphasized the significance of the protocol in taking university-industry collaboration to the next level, stating, "We are taking important steps in combining our theoretical knowledge as a university with the practical knowledge of the industry. We are advancing our research and development efforts further through university-industry collaboration. I believe that the studies to be conducted under this protocol will provide valuable contributions academically and scientifically to the institutions we collaborate with. With these thoughts, I extend my gratitude to our esteemed Rector Prof. Dr. Mustafa Alişarlı, Yıldız Entegre Marketing and Product Development Deputy General Manager Melike Alkan, Board Member Hasan Yıldız, Factory Manager Ahmet Akpınar, and our graduate and Quality and R&D Manager Kenan Çağrı Nevruz for their collaborative approach. I wish the protocol to be beneficial for all."
