Inspired by the gecko: Better adhesion properties of plastics through combined micro- and nanostructures
Structured surface improves adhesion, wettability, optical reflection, hydrophobicity and recyclability.
27-Feb-2024 -
With a patented process for micro-nano-structuring, the Fraunhofer Institute for Microstructure of Materials and Systems IMWS in Halle (Saale) has achieved significant improvements in the adhesion properties of polymers. The process, in which structured surfaces are produced by hot imprinting or ...
