The "Conformally" start-up project at Kiel University is working on the iCVD process (initiated chemical vapor deposition) as an environmentally friendly alternative to PFAS coatings and will be exhibiting at SurfaceTechnology Germany 2024.

Innovation meets sustainability: The Conformally team at Christian-Albrechts-Universität is an expert in the coating of highly conformal and high-quality organic thin films using initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD). Ultra-thin layers (10nm-10µm) with a variety of properties can be produced for a wide range of applications.

Our coatings are used in particular in sensor technology (insulation, gas permeability, hydrophobization), medical technology (non-stick, antiviral, biocompatibility) and microelectronics (barrier layers, ultra-precise electrets) and are replacing conventional PFAS coatings. Conformally offers interested parties joint product development and, in future, both contract coating and system sales. Christian-Albrechts-Universität/Conformally will be exhibiting at stand H41 at SurfaceTechnology Germany 2024.
