ORMOCER

ORMOCER® is not a classical composite material. The individual components are covalently and irreversibly linked to each other. The resulting parallel network formation of an organic and an inorganic network is responsible for the outstanding properties of the materials... ORMOCER® materials combine the advantages of inorganic (glass or ceramic) and organic (polymer) materials in a new, hybrid material. This allows them to be used, for example, as extremely resilient but also extremely flexible protective coatings... Since the focus of the application is in the field of packaging, compost tests were also carried out. According to industrial conditions (ISO 14855-1:2013), the degradation of applied layers and also of individually analyzed layers could be confirmed.
