The Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Polymer Research IAP

Bio-based carbon fibers for lightweight cars, organic light-emitting diodes for flexible displays or artificial corneas as implants - the Fraunhofer IAP in Potsdam-Golm develops bio-based and synthetic polymers as well as processes for their production, functionalization and processing. The institute offers a wide range of research and development services for polymer applications tailored to the wishes and needs of clients. We also create the conditions for the processes to work both on a laboratory scale and under production conditions.

In the department of functional materials and devices, the Fraunhofer IAP develops customer-specific applications for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic photovoltaics (OPV) and quantum dot based displays.
