Cluster 2: Synthesis and Formulation
This cluster is dedicated to the synthesis and formulation of materials and inks. It consists of a set of chemical synthesis and characterization tools in cleanroom environment. Next to a focus on high purity new materials, this cluster also provides possibilities for the scaling-up of existing synthesis and formulation processes.
