INM is introducing new nano-coatings that reduce the effort required for cleaning heat exchangers as well as their corrosion. In these new coatings, the research scientists combine antiadhesive, anticorrosive and, on demand, also antimicrobial properties.
INM has developed a technique, which allows conductor paths even on flexible foils as well as on stretchable silicone. INM will be presenting the so called photochemical metallization on this year’s Hannover Messe at the Stand B46 in hall 2 from 24 April to 28 April.
Scientists at INM have developed a new type of hybrid inks which allows electronic circuits to be applied to paper directly from a pen.
At this year’s Hannover Messe INM will be demonstrating flexible touch screens, which are produced by printing recently developed nanoparticle inks on thin plastic foils.
The aim of the joint project, NaMiComp, is to analyze Namibia’s locally available natural resources and then use them as a basis for new materials for industrial applications. In the long term, the aim is to build an on-site materials science institute at the University of Namibia.
