Method for producing organic-inorganic hybrid materials

SCIP (Simultaneous Coating and Infiltration Process) is a new processing technology that allows improvement of mechanical properties of polymers and simultaneously adds further functionalities such as ultraviolet (UV) light blocking, etc. It can be directly applied to functionalize various polymers, e.g. textile, thereby opening new perspectives for a product development in the sports/fashion or personal protection sector. The technology allows to improve also further properties, for example wear, and therefore shows high market potential in the automotive sector.
