Dutch AI company designs new polymers to specification in weeks instead of years
TNO launches polySCOUT, an independent Dutch AI company that designs polymers to specification. Target properties and regulatory constraints go in; lab-validated candidate materials come out. Where the design and selection phase of a new polymer typically takes years, polySCOUT brings it down to weeks. The technology has been developed within TNO since 2022, and TNO becomes a shareholder in the new company.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1492 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
