About us
Technology with Advanced Hybrid Materials — AH Materials is a hybrid conductive materials company founded on research at Pukyong National University.
Who we are
As 5G-based services such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous vehicles and augmented reality (AR) reach the market and hardware performance advances rapidly, demand for high-performance electronic materials keeps growing.
AH Materials offers low-cost, high-performance polymer/nano-metal hybrid materials: high-work-function PEDOT:PSS for hole injection, highly conductive PEDOT:PSS for transparent and stretchable electrodes, PEDOT nanowires and powders, process additives and surface modifiers that raise conductivity and stretchability, a recyclable cellulose/PEDOT:PSS hybrid, and ion gels for electrochromic devices — the conductive materials that flexible and stretchable electronics need.
AH stands for Advanced Hybrid. Our materials address the drawbacks of conventional materials and open new possibilities for a wide range of electronic devices, including organic solar cells, OLEDs, perovskite devices, sensors, heaters and EMI-shielding devices.
