Overview
LubISS, Lubricant Impregnated Slippery Surfaces, is the first European Training Network with the main objectives of designing, characterizing, and modelling low adhesive easy-to-clean surfaces for anti-icing and anti-fouling. In a coordinated effort among 9 world-class academic institutions and industrial partners from 6 European countries (Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Netherlands, Switzerland), advanced lubricant impregnated surfaces will be developed.
Objectives
LubISS aims to provide early stage researchers with excellent cross-disciplinary education in
- fundamental and practical concepts in physical and chemical surface science and
- management, communication and mentorship skills required to become future leaders in academics or industry.
