Materia Faces Legal Challenge From German Company

Pasadena-based material science technology developer Materia appears to be facing some legal challenges in court, according to Law360. The report says that a German industrial conglomerate, Evonik Degussa GmbH, says it received a $1.5M patent infringement verdict over a chemical bond component Materia makes in January, and claims that Materia is still offering those infringing products for sale on its website. The report said the complaint was received in the Delaware federal court on Wednesday.
