Max Planck Institute For Polymer Research
Imagine a world, where smart soft materials either prevent diseases or allow for local treatment without any side effects. Or, imagine windows and surfaces coated with smart materials that self-clean. Or imagine electronic components as LEDs and solar cells that are printed on a roll and either save or generate energy, or smart materials that efficiently convert sea water into drinking water. At the MPI-P, we develop novel smart materials and concepts to solve these societal challenges.

Atto-Tec Gmbh
ATTO-TEC GmbH was founded in autumn as a spin-off of the University of Siegen. The decisive factor was the scientific experience of the four founders with organic laser and fluorescent dyes, some of which lasted decades. In particular, Prof. Drexhage's research team focused on the synthesis and development of long-wavelength fluorophores for the labeling of biomolecules in the 1990s, as fluorescence-based techniques were established as sensitive detection and analysis methods in the emerging field of life sciences. Thus, in the summer of the young company was able to present its own market-ready products as a manufacturer of fluorescent dyes for medicine, diagnostics and biology at ACHEMA in Frankfurt am Main. Through the constant development of innovative derivatives - e.g. compounds for "click chemistry" or dye-conjugated phospholipids - the market position was further strengthened. In the early years, important impulses for application-oriented dye research were obtained by participation in various BMBF and EU projects. After over 20 years of existence, ATTO-TEC GmbH now has a portfolio of more than 40 fluorophores with over 200 different modifications. These partially patented fluorescence markers cover the entire visible spectral range from ultraviolet to near infrared. Our customers - including renowned research institutes and international companies - appreciate the particularly high purity and excellent quality of our ATTO dyes. In addition to our readily available catalogue products, we offer the service of individual customer syntheses. In close cooperation with the client, our qualified team develops tailor-made dyes or derivatives for its special application. The satisfaction of our customers is our top priority. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any problems or questions regarding our particular products as well as fluorescence or organic dyes. We will be glad to help you!

Dwi - Leibniz Institute For Interactive Materials
Research at DWI focuses on the development of materials with active and adaptive properties, after being founded in 1952 with an original emphasis on keratin research and protein chemistry. The capability for active adaptation and interactivity is one of the most profound challenges of today’s materials research and will ultimately lead to the evolution of structural via functional to intelligent materials. At DWI scientists with backgrounds in polymer sciences, biotechnology and chemical engineering closely collaborate on mastering this challenge. The research approach at DWI is based on integrating molecular components, whose structure and dynamics are orchestrated by complex interactions on various length scales, into macroscopic materials, devices and in the end systems. For exceeding the passive functionalities of existing materials, DWI researches on switchable material properties, the application of memory effects, the integration of energy conversion systems, as well as on internal feedback mechanisms. Beyond materials aspects the DWI team aims at an integration of active characteristics into interacting material systems. The fields of application are diverse, dealing with surface finishing, biomedical technology, biotechnology and sustainable chemical engineering. Five research programs cover DWI’s main areas of interest- Synthiofluidics – Microphase- and microfluidic-controlled syntheses and processes - Aqua Materials – Water-containing materials formed from aqueous solution; chemistry in aqueous systems - Functional Films and Surfaces – Surface-controlled functionality - Transport and Exchange Systems – Separation- and reaction-controlling systems and processes - Biointerface and Biohybrid Systems – Biohybrid systems and control of bioreactions in material contact
