SURFACES RENDERED SELF-CLEANING BY HYDROPHOBIC STRUCTURES, AND PROCESS FOR THEIR PRODUCTION

摘要

The present invention relates to objects having self-cleaning surfaces, and to processes for their production. The self-cleaning hydrophobic surfaces have particles with a size in the micrometer range to submicrometer range and a fissured structure in the nanometer range. These particles are secured by a carrier, such as a coating, to a surface of the object.
