Why Glassomer?
Structuring fused silica glass is challenging and commonly done using wet chemical etching techniques which require hydrofluoric acid. Glassomer is a silica nanocomposite which comes as a liquid or a solid. As a liquid Glassomer (e.g. Glassomer L40) can be structured by room temperature replication or stereolithography 3D printing. As a solid Glassomer can be structured using classical subtactive structuring technologies like drilling, milling, lathing or simply carving with a knife. It can further be structured using thermal polymer molding technologies like nanoimprinting, thermoforming or high-throughput roll-to-roll replication. A final heat treatment turns the polymeric nanocomposites (green part) into high-quality transparent fused silica glass via thermal debinding (brown part) and sintering (fused silica glass).
