Surface texturing

Using micro- and nanostructures, we modify the properties of polymer surfaces without changing their composition.

For this purpose, we develop tools and processes for high fidelity replication of functional surface structures:

• Design and layout of functional surface topographies (biomimetics, calculations, simulation).
• Fabrication of master structures by ultra-short pulse laser micromachining or lithography
• Tool design and master integration
• Component design and process simulation
• Industrial replication technologies: injection (compression) molding, hot embossing, UV imprinting
  
• Validation of functional samples
