Anti-fingerprint surfaces: No grease marks thanks to nanopaints

Greasy fingerprints on shiny stainless steel surfaces not only look unattractive, they also attack the surface. In the future, a new nano-lacquer will prevent fingerprints from being left behind when touching stainless steel fronts. This is made possible by special nanoparticles that are added to the paint.

Nanolack for anti-fingerprint surfaces

Greasy smears and traces on stainless steel and metal surfaces are not only visually annoying, but also attack the surface and can only be removed by complex polishing. At the Fraunhofer Institute for Microstructure of Materials and Systems IMWS, Halle, Germany, a highly effective sol/gel nano lacquer with an antifingerprint effect is to be developed in a research project with FEW Chemicals GmbH Wolfen.
