Method for producing a replication master, replication method and replication master

摘要

In a method for producing a replication master ( 10 ) having a surface with low roughness, comprising the steps of forming said master ( 10 ) such as to have a desired external surface shape corresponding to a counterform of a surface of an object ( 18, 20 ) to be produced by replication and treating said external surface of said master ( 10 ) to obtain a predetermined surface roughness value, it is proposed that said method furthermore comprises the step of coating at least a part of said master ( 10 ) with a soluble smoothening layer ( 16 ). The invention further relates to a replication master ( 10 ) for producing a smooth object ( 18, 20 ) having a low surface roughness, wherein at least a part of said master ( 10 ) is coated with a soluble smoothening layer ( 16 ).
