Research Activities:

The main focus of Research & Development Activities at IMST is on functional coatings, including super-hydrophilic, release-free anti-adhesive, anti-biofouling films on various substrates; hydrophobic and oleophobic anti-fingerprint coatings. The coatings can be combined with electrochemically structured surfaces to enhance functionality and mechanical resistance. The coatings  are mainly processed using environmentally friendly and sustainable deposition methods such as photo-grafting, electrochemical and sol-gel methods.

I have published and co-authored 176 papers in international, peer-reviewed journals. A list of selected publications may be found here. I also hold  19 patents (see recently granted patents).
