SINBIOSYS developed invisible nano tracers that can be illuminated with UV LEDs and used as inks for plastic films or as additives for virgin plastic resins. This technology permits the differentiation of plastics by the color of the emission of the quantum dots that are put into each different polymer. The readout of the signal was tested so far with commercial sorting machines at speeds up to 1 ton of material per hour and can be done with small flakes or on the whole object.

SINBIOSYS – SBY- produces SiQDs with different passivation layers that enables dispersion in different solvents. The passivation layer consists in covalently linked hydrocarbon chains that confer high stability to the system. SiQDs passivated with alkyl moieties can be dispersed in apolar organic solvents like toluene, DCM, THF, Hexane. SiQDs passivated with carboxylic terminal groups can be suspended in polar solvents like ethanol, methanol and ethyl acetate. SiQDs passivated with alkene terminal groups can be dispersed in apolar organic solvents like toluene, DCM, THF, hexane and they are active for further functionalization. SiQDs passivated with glycol terminal groups can be dispersed in polar solvents like ethanol, methanol and ethyl acetate. Typical absorption (dotted line) and emission spectra (coloured lines) of SiQDs. Emission is tunable in the range 600-1000 nm.
