Speaker: Sue C. Lewis | Corning Incorporated | Willow® Glass Product Engineering Manager

Summary: A glass substrate is often the preferred solution for many applications. It offers excellent optical and surface properties, dimensional and thermal stability and hermeticity. Corning® Willow® Glass offers all the same advantages as other glass substrates in a thin and light, flexible form that can take advantage of the manufacturing advantages of R2R processing.

This workshop will demonstrate scalable R2R coating processes on flexible glass, discuss the properties of the glass substrate that make this possible, and the advantages of using a flexible glass substrate.

Time: Wednesday 13:25 – 13:50 Place: Congress Center Würzburg, Room 7-9
