At the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB, surfaces are first of all fully characterized with the aim of selectively modifying their properties, and in a second step, they are functionalized using various modification and coating technologies.
- Process development for the plasma modification of surfaces (powders, fibers, surfaces and shaped bodies)
- Layer development
- Scratch protection, abrasion protection layers
- Production of adhesive or dehesive agents
- Corrosion protection layers
- Barrier layers (e.g. impervious to oxygen and water vapor)
- Functionalization of surfaces
- Biofunctionalization, chemical functionalization
- Development of plasma cleaning processes
- Development of plasma sterilization processes
- Surface and layer characterization
- Geometry, morphology, roughness
- Chemical composition, biological properties
- Interfacial energy, adhesion
- Development of processes and plants
- Upscaling of the laboratory process
- Consultations, evaluation und feasibility studies to establish plasma methods as a technological alternative
- Patent and literature research on subjects relating to plasma technology
