From the nanoscale to the macroscale, molecule by molecule
Carpona is pushing the boundaries of what is possible with covalent organic framework materials today
What carpona does
Carpona wants to be the vehicle to facilitate other research areas. The company provides methods for producing covalent organic framework membranes through innovative chemistry, improving order, chemical control, and allowing for a pore size on the nanometer level. Carponas intention is to pave the way for new insights beyond what is possible today in a wide range of fields.
- Carpona provides methods that can produce covalent organic frameworks in the form of ultra-thin film materials with unprecedented quality and/or efficiency.
- Carpona’s methods can produce materials that have potential to be used for organic electronics, filtration, sensors or other applications where ultra-homogenous covalent organic materials can be beneficial.
- The materials can be adapted and designed according to deliver desired properties.
Carpona’s offer
The research methodology is based on physical organic chemistry. By constraining chemical reactivity in space, our unique method allows for the build-up of covalent organic framework films and membranes of nanometer thickness and an area cm size scale, with a nanoscale controlled placement of atoms.
This enables membranes with thickness to length scale aspect ratios exceeding six orders of magnitudes to be produced.
