Refractive index is more than a material property. In optical systems, it can shape reflection losses, optical confinement, coating design, fiber geometry, and performance margin. Our latest article looks at where low-index materials, including amorphous fluoropolymers, may create value in advanced photonics.

Proud to share a major milestone: Chromis and the University of Kansas (@KUnews) have received a U.S. patent for a membrane that can separate azeotropic refrigerant blends — enabling scalable, low-energy recovery of HFC-32 from R-410A.

A big step for refrigerant circularity, and a great example of what’s possible when materials science meets climate urgency.
