Sandwich HybridGlass
Development and characterization of innovative glass/polymer hybrids
The aim of the project is to develop innovative products made of glass/polymer sandwich composites and the manufacturing processes required for this. With these material composites, new property profiles are to be realized that cannot be achieved with the material groups glass or plastic alone.
The basic structure of these sandwich structures consists of flat glasses as cover layers of polymer cores, whereby, in contrast to bonded composite structures, insoluble bonds are created via the chemical solution approach. The use of different types of glass and polymers as well as additives in the core material and in the boundary layers with nanoscale particles forms the basis for a comprehensive system concept with the choice of material thicknesses and interlayer spaces. A prerequisite for realizing the project goals with regard to the product properties is the development of the associated manufacturing processes. In addition to this process engineering part of the task, the testing techniques for the new material composites form a further focus of the R&D activities. The target market for the new products is primarily defined as building services engineering.
