SBIR Phase I: Lens-forming nanocomposites for high strength, clear ophthalmic lenses
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2008 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency:
NSF
Principal Investigator:
Thad L. Druffel, MS
Award Amount:
$99,907.00
Abstract:
This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project will develop a nanocomposite ophthalmic lens utilizing nanoparticles and UV curable monomers. The objectives are to increase the impact resistance of the lens by 33% and to improve the modulus at elevated temperatures keeping haze to 1% or less… More
