The interdisciplinary field of coated textiles ranges from home and clothing textiles to medical and technical textiles. The abundance of possible combinations of the most diverse textiles with the most diverse polymer layers allows an extreme variety, which makes coated textiles attractive materials for all future markets.
The compact seminar looks at the entire value-added chain of the production of coated textiles. Starting with raw and auxiliary materials, through the individual technological processing stages to testing the material properties. Three of the most common polymer systems (PU, PVC, silicone) and selected products will be discussed in detail.
In order to illustrate the knowledge imparted, there is the possibility to get to know coating tests on a laboratory scale as well as coating systems in the technical center in the course of a tour. Furthermore, a large number of samples of the different material qualities are available.
The compact seminar is tailored for a group of people who want to get an overview of
the technological process flows,
the chemical basics and
the material-property relationships
around coated surface materials.
