By Optitune
Optitune’s patented polysiloxane coatings are based on 100+ years of siloxane chemistry know-how. They combine seemingly contradicting properties such as hardness and flexibility while offering an alternative to coatings that are “nearly transparent” with perfectly clear coatings that actually improve the substrates transmission by reducing unwanted reflections. Flexible, formable and foldable electronic display devices are finally becoming a possibility. In 2015 Optitune anticipated this trend and started to develop a family of products with flexibility and foldability. Optitune already has flexible outer coatings and formable inner layers that enable such features. In contrast to competitors’ acrylate-based coating offerings, Optitune´s flexible hard coatings are 10 times thinner and actually increase the transmittance of the substrate films due to the nature of Optitune´s polysiloxane technology.
