Nano-bionic – Background

Nanotechnology and nanobionics are key technologies of the 21st Century. Their exceptional innovation potential will permanently change the face of the economy throughout every sector. Products that were unimaginable years ago are now real possibilities.

Surfaces are coated in order to improve the properties of the product materials and adapt them to more rugged environments. Now that the “age” of conventional processes has passed, the proliferation of new materials in today’s economy and everyday life calls for better and more durable solutions with respect to the quality, protection and functionality of surfaces.

Nanotechnology is by far the most efficient answer to these needs. The coatings are a nearly invisible and aesthetically pleasing way to change and improve the properties of surfaces. However, almost all nano “coating products” contain silicones, waxes, oils, CFC etc. – see item 4j – which makes those useful only for a short time, and often causes damage to the original surface – like getting yellow.. Such common nanoproducts are also cost-intensive, both as a result of the need to repeat their application after only a short period and due to cleaning costs. Another possible method today is “photocatalyse” which merges surfaces like glas with titandioxyd. This photocatalyse method decomposes organic particles – not anorganic ones – by-and-by due to sun and daylight and before that due to the hydrophile effect of this method anorganic industrial dust and organic pollution are spreaded on the surface. This method don´t produces the desirable effect of prevention surfaces from getting pollute, especially from anorganic industrial contamination and is therefore as well not a state of the art solution.

NanoBionic technology is the most efficient, effective and durable method available. It prevents treated surfaces from organic and anorganic pollution, such as insects etc. and as well salt, calcium, dust, sand, ferric oxide, industrial contamination etc. Based on natural processes, nanobionics guarantee effectiveness through mechanical means – without silicones or other pollutants, without sealing pores, extremely durably, self-cleaning and easy-to-clean, both water and dirt repellent. As good as nature. The surface to be treated with a nanobionic coating must be free of residues from fats, oils, detergents and silicones, in order to ensure long-term effectiveness.
