  • Dielectric polymers with elevated permittivity, process for preparation thereof and end uses thereof
    Patent number: 9018320
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polymer which has an electronic dipole covalently bonded to the polymer structure. The polymer structure forming the basis of the polymer is in particular an elastomer which can be unbranched, or also branched or crosslinked. The present invention equally describes a method for bonding a dipole molecule to a corresponding polymer structure or elastomer structure. The polymer in accordance with the invention can be present as a pure substance or also as a mixture with any other polymers, preferably with further elastomers. Uses of the polymer or of the obtained polymer blend will equally be provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 23, 2011
    Date of Patent: April 28, 2015
    Assignee: Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft zur Förderung der Angewandten Forschung e.V.
    Inventors: Hartmut Krüger, Björn Kussmaul, Guggi Kofod, Sebastian Risse
