Project description

With this project a prototype is realized for a new flexible, scratch-resistant silica protective layer with increased mechanical strength. Group Michiels Advanced Materials (GMAM) wants to optimize this prototype with regard to chemical deposition to standard window film, as no party can be found in Europe to date that can cover a width of 72 inches (or 182 cm).
