12. So, what are
NeoPearls?

13. They are very small...

14. They are very small...
The smallest ones are
only 50 nm, that is
0.00050 mm!!

15. They are very small...
The smallest ones are
only 50 nm, that is 1000 particles
would fit
0.00050 mm!! on 1 hair

16. This is what they look like:

SOLID PARTICLES

21. And this is what we know about the little guys:
(feel free to skip two slides if this is too technical)
SOLID PARTICLES
•Based on a cross-linked unsaturated polyester / styrene resin
(the material we normally use to build yachts, car parts or windmill blades)

22. And this is what we know about the little guys:
(feel free to skip two slides if this is too technical)
SOLID PARTICLES
•Based on a cross-linked unsaturated polyester / styrene resin
(the material we normally use to build yachts, car parts or windmill blades)
•They are fully cross-linked, so they
-do not dissolve in common organic solvents,
-are thermally stable (do not melt, get sticky or deform) up to 240 °C,
-are mechanically stable and rather hard.
(since they are very small, we can not measure their compressive strength or hardness)

•They are very small
-Current prototypes have particle size (D50) of 50 and 110 nm
-This makes them invisible to the naked eye
