Smart Coating Technology

Smart Coating Technologie

The design of surfaces determines central product properties such as colour, gloss, odour, texture, haptics, skin compatibility, friction behaviour, electrical conductivity, self-cleaning, corrosion resistance as well as antibacterial properties. Switchable and intelligent surface parameters are also becoming increasingly important.

The coating systems developed by NanoCraft and based on Smart Coating Technology use the self-organizing properties of specifically designed nano- or biopolymers to form defined coating systems in the nanometer range.

​Chemically defined surface modification of different materials:

  • Galvanic metals (Au, Pt, Ag, Cu, Ni, Pd, Rh, almost all metals and alloys)
  • high-grade steel
  • aluminium
  • titanium
  • silicon, glass
  • various polymers
  • textiles

Customized setting of surface properties:

  • Chemical insulating, dirt-, water-, oil-repellent
  • Protection of metals and alloys against oxidation and discoloration
  • Bonding and conversion, defined adapted to the contact material/surface energies
  • Bioactive properties

On this basis, we develop specially adapted functional coatings for the highest surface requirements, just as we can provide you with our proven coating systems. Our developments focus on highest quality – verified by load tests, maximum process reliability, optimised environmental compatibility and high cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, we optimize complete systems of customer coating processes and integrate new technologies such as plasma treatment for cleaning and activation of surfaces.
