70. A number of commercial applications were pioneered in Germany since the mid 80's by by H. Schmidt and co-workers at the Fraunhofer Institut fur Silicatforschung where also the term ORMOCER was trade-marked (see also at the URL: http://www.ormocer.de). Today, dozens of commercial applications of ORMOSIL exist that were recently reviewed in depth in ref 5a.
