Ares Materials: Polysulfide Thermosets as Optoelectronic novel polymers enabling FHE's

Flexible Hybrid Electronic (FHE) technology is transforming the world's largest industries and has particularly compelling military applications. Ares Materials Inc. is leading the scientific innovation driving the next wave of electronic devices, developing novel transparent polymer materials for truly flexible mobile, wearable and embedded electronics. Ares objective is to creating thinner, lighter, and virtually unbreakable devices, intimately integrating electronics with the human body and seamlessly incorporated into all every-day items in our ecosystem. Specifically, Ares R&D focuses on the design and scale-up of novel optoelectronic materials that commercialize a new class of optically excellent resins and films: polysulfide thermosets. These amorphous, crosslinked materials allow for industry-leading optical performance while being able to tune the thermomechanical properties of the material for a wide variety of applications such as heat-resistant electronic substrates, shock absorbing optically clear adhesives and scratch resistant cover lens materials. The technology is broadly applicable due to the versatile nature of the material design, including the design of soft, optically-clear materials targeted for flexible hybrid electronic (FHE) integration and the design of novel materials to interface with rigid-package optoelectronic modules to create more conformal high-performance electronics for man-machine interfaces.
