Is there finally a bio-based, eco-friendly coating to replace PFAS? BIOSUPHYOL provides superior hydrophobic and oleophobic performance for paper and packaging.
Ultrashort pulse lasers can modify surfaces to give them new properties or functionalities such as friction, water repellency, anti-bacterial action or higher heat release. They offer many advantages ...
Removable coatings allow coated interior products to be reused several times, which will significantly extend their lifespan and ensure recyclable waste streams at end-of-life. The PEELDESIGN project ...
Researchers at Sirris demonstrate for first time femtosecond laser texturing of soft biopolymer coatings as a high-throughput method for surface patterning.
Innovation in manufacturing plays a key role in reducing the industry’s environmental impact. Recent advances in non-classical manufacturing technologies, such as ultrashort pulsed laser manufacturing ...
In recent years, considerable attention in surface engineering research has been directed towards superhydrophobic surfaces - surfaces that exhibit extremely high resistance to wetting by water. In ...
'Corrosion under insulation' (CUI) is one of the most common and most difficult to manage forms of corrosion in the process and chemical industry, with corresponding costs and safety risks. To support ...
Until recently, Sirris used multi-scale texturing to make surfaces water-repellent. This technique creates superhydrophobic surfaces but is quite time-consuming. That is why we looked for a different ...
Measuring is knowing, also when it comes to adding functionalities to surfaces by means of texturing. If you want to get an idea about surface performance, Sirris’ functionality development relies on ...
Laser surface texturing is increasingly being used as a surface treatment technology because it improves and speeds up treatment, making the process more cost-effective. This development opens the ...
Corrosion remains one of the most important degradation processes of installations and infrastructure and as such is the cause of failures, downtime, lack of safety, and environmental damage ...
