We design and develop decorative and functional surfaces and coatings in the fields of galvanic coating systems, thin-film technology, anodised coatings and powder coatings.
Detection systems with electrochemically active surfaces.
The aim of the project is the development of simply constructed and inexpensively producible breakthrough detectors with electrochemically active surfaces for the AMC contaminants ammonia and formaldehyde. According to the principle of gas-solid interaction, signal generation is to be detected. For this purpose, nanoparticles are to be
nanoparticles are to be deposited on 3D carrier materials with reactive surfaces by means of galvanic deposition.
We are looking for strong partners for our R&D projects
The transfer of knowledge from research to industrial practice is all the more successful the earlier we cooperate with SMEs and partners from industry. That's why we are constantly looking for companies from all relevant industries who would like to actively participate in the committees of our R&D projects. Our contact persons look forward to your interest!
Contact and long-term behaviour of self-lubricating coatings in current-carrying connections.
The results of the project show that all the particle types investigated can be incorporated into silver coatings when coating model geometries. The systems silver-graphite, silver-MoS2 and silver-WS2 stand out due to their good tribological properties. Values for the average coefficients of friction around 0.2 are achieved, which are stable even after a thermal ageing of 2000h at 180°C.
