Welcome to the Chair

"Coatings, Materials & Polymers"

The Chair of "Coatings, Materials & Polymers" (CMP) focuses on applied material and process science that overlaps with areas of classical chemistry and has synergy potential with mechanical engineering and the ILH. This applies in particular to particle production and functionalization, boundary phase processes between composite materials, coating, bonding and joining technology and the development of new high-performance polymers. Project examples include the development of an easy-to-clean coating for concrete and car rims, environmentally friendly solvent replacement in wire enamels, grain boundary-selective deposition of corrosion-inhibiting polymers on galvanized steel and the development of a bonded coating that contains triboreductive functionalities as non-abrasive units. The industrial process "lacquer" (raw material development and functionalization) is considered in its interdependencies.
