An opaque polymer known as cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) is produced by a number of polymer companies. In contrast to widely used materials like polypropylene and polyethylene, COC is a comparatively new class of polymers.
In addition to packaging films, lenses, vials, displays, and medical equipment, this newer substance is used in a broad range of other products as well.
Because of its low dissipation factor, also known as tan delta, and low permittivity, COC shares some electronic characteristics with fluoropolymers. As a barrier, it excels.
Due to COC’s low dielectric constant, even at high frequencies, it is used in some capacitor applications and in some antenna applications where polypropylene is insufficient due to the need for greater temperature resistance.
The Global EV Cyclo-olefin copolymer (COC) market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The application of COC in optics, medical technology, nanotechnology, and microelectronics is looking hopeful. The COC can be modified using a variety of methods, such as plasma therapy or lithography, which determines how applicable it is.
An aluminium thin layer is currently being applied to specific regions of the COC surface using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). By using atomic force and scanning electron microscopy, the sessile drop technique, and UV/ViS optical spectroscopy, researchers have assessed the wettability, morphology, composition, and optical properties of both unaltered and modified COC.
In the same way as the most recent nano-particulate polymeric structures, they have the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier. In a recent study, Tong et al. replaced the organic liquid electrolytes found in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with solid-state electrolytes made of ionically reactive polymers.
This sparked the development of a new generation of solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) that outperform traditional LIBs in terms of benefits like the elimination of volatile components, increased energy density and storage, longer cycle life, and improved safety, which hold promise for the development of high-capacity electrode materials.
A COC is an organic molecule made up of carbon and hydrogen that are linked together in rings that are not aromatic, branched chains, or straight chains.
Norbornene and ethylene are copolymerized to create COC sheets. The components ethylene and norbornene are designated by the subscripts n and m, respectively. There are many norbornene compounds, and the COC’s glass transition temperature can be changed by varying the norbornene content.
