INJECTION MOLDED BODY HAVING SELF-CLEANING PROPERTIES, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING INJECTION MOLDED BODIES OF THIS TYPE

摘要

The invention relates to injection molded bodies with surfaces having self-cleaning properties, and to a simple method for producing these self-cleaning surfaces. The inventive method is simple by virtue of the fact that it can involve the use of existing tools. Injection molded parts are generally produced by using injection molds into which the material is injected. The inventive method uses this technique by applying microparticles to the injection mold before the actual injection molding whereby, during injection molding, these particles are transferred tot he injection molded part while being pressed into the surface thereof. The inventive method makes it possible to obtain self-cleaning surfaces comprising particles with a fissured structure without having to apply an additional embossed layer or foreign material supporting layer to the shaped bodies. Inventive injection molded bodies can be three-dimensional articles of almost any type.
