In November 2018, the research project “Changing surface wettability by direct growth of metal organic frameworks on heat exchanger materials” (Tropfenkondensation von Kälte- und Lösemitteln auf funktionalisierten Oberflächen für hocheffiziente Wärmeübertrager) was started at the IFW Dresden together with the Institute of Process Ingineering and Environmental Technology (TU Dresden). The project is based on our recent development of hierarchically structured metal-organic framework (MOF) films for applications as coatings with stable omniphobic surfaces (Scientific Reports 8 (2018) 15400). Films with omniphobic surfaces are important for condensation of fluids with a weak surface tension, which plays a crucial role for heat supply devices. The project is aimed to fabricate the optimized omniphobic surfaces using electrochemical deposition of MOFs, and to extend the processing procedure towards different designs suitable for application.

This project is funded by the European Regional Development Fund (EFRE) and the Free State of Saxony.
Dieses Projekt wird aus Mitteln des Europäischen Fonds für Regionale Entwicklung (EFRE) und des Freistaates Sachsen gefördert.
