Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft and Ynvisible signed MoU in the field of electrochromic inks and devices. The co-operation aims to accomplish several objectives related to the development and proliferation of electrochromic inks and devices. The agreement outlines that joint business explorations will be conducted, seeking to enhance commercial uses of Fraunhofer's technologies and skills in electrochromics by combining them with Ynvisible's technology and beyond. Developments will be jointly carried out by using a combination of each parties' proprietary technologies, skills and capabilities. In the collaboration Fraunhofer and Ynvisible will continue to carry out joint business planning and technology dissemination activities from their shared earlier work. The collaboration has since been continued in the EU Horizon 2020 co-funded project DecoChrom, which kicked-off in first quarter of 2018. The project elevates printed graphics to the 21st century, by developing capabilities of designers of high-value consumer goods. First results of the work between Fraunhofer and Ynvisible have been on display through demonstrators from the DecoChrom At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2019), Ynvisible showed patterned light blocking films that could be integrated into consumer products for a range of end applications requiring increased levels of branding/communications, and/or light blocking functionality. With its recently established development facility in Freiburg, Ynvisible can push on the production maturity and marketability for electrochromics with great vigor, together with its strong partners from the electrochromic community, Uwe Posset, project manager for electrochromic material development from Fraunhofer ISC.
