Abstract
The invention relates to a method of producing a self-cleaning surface on a substrate.To provide a method according to the preamble, with which surfaces can be produced which are self-cleaning indoors as well and even in the dark, it is suggested according to the invention that a coating with hydrophilic surface components be applied to the substrate and a structure formed in the nanometer range or a combined structure in the nano- and micrometer ranges.The invention surprisingly demonstrates that the principles underlying the Lotus effect® apply not only to hydrophobic but also hydrophilic surfaces.
