Surface functionalization
We use different types of chemical modification of polymer surfaces and coating technologies to achieve tailored properties.
The focus is on wettability, interfaces, adhesion and (bio-)functional coatings:
- Pretreatment of polymer surfaces (plasma, electron beam irradiation, corona)
- Tailor-made wettability of polymer surfaces
- Grafting of functional polymers, especially by electron beam irradiation
- UV-curable functional coatings
- Plasma polymerization of functional coatings
- New materials with surface-modified fillers

"Very quick and high-level response. The systematic use of the broad analytics and surface modification methods were amazing!"
