More about the book

The Mission: Acquire a deep insight into the world of functional coatings – from the long-established lotus-flower effect to more recent research results, such as self-healing and anti-icing – and understand the principles behind these systems. This enables the reader to acquire a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the field of functional coatings and the state of the art. The Audience: Formulators seeking to brush up on the latest developments in the field of functional coatings and also to delve further into the topic, as well as experts wanting to have detailed knowledge of the latest research results to hand. Everyone seeking to know more about how functional coatings work. The Value: This book outlines recent developments in the field of functional coatings, with the focus on organic-based materials. The first part describes so-called toolbox methods currently available to developers and covers a large number of methods, ranging from the generation of specific topographies on the microscale and nanoscale levels to the use of microcapsules and nanoparticles, and customised surface immobilisation of molecules. The functionalities themselves are the focus of the second part of the book, which describes current developments in the area of organic-based functional coatings and which technical applications can be expected in the future.
