surface and interface engineering

Aiming at providing suitable properties for a specific application, ICMATE’s R&D activities are focused on the functionalization of surfaces by using physical and chemical methods

Lines of activity:

• Laser treatments on advanced metal surfaces

• Ceramic and metal protective coatings

• Organic-inorganic hybrid surfaces

• Water and oil repellent coatings with self-cleaning properties and high transmittance

• Plasma treatments to improve surface properties
