%X Functional composites are ubiquitous in technology. They allow to simultaneously optimize functional properties against multiple application demands by combining several phases, each contributing desired functions. However, the forming structure and internal interfaces govern the overall properties of the composite in complex ways. Without understanding these complex structure-property relationships, rational design of advanced functional composites is impossible. Here we present new capabilities and ambitions of the CTCentre for Functional Composites, touching on infrastructure, advanced image processing, image-based modelling, as well as a selection of use cases and applications.
