The group "Polymer modifikation of functional polymer systems" works together with the industry on:

• synthesis, modification, characterisation and shaping/ processing of synthetic functional polymers and polymer additives for generating special surface and interface properties or other material properties, for example functional polymers with special electrical, magnetic or optical properties,
• nanoscale polymer somposites with nano-carbons and nano-C-fibres; modificed polyoxadiazole and Ic-copolyesterimides,
• functional polymer systems with structural and property gradients, getting ionic/ hydrophilic, hydrophobic, antibacterial, flame-resistant, transport or barrier properties by migration-able additives enriched on the surfaces
• thermotropic "reactive LCPs" as molecular compatiblizer in polymer blends and for "polymer marking, inclusive synthesis on demand
• manufacturing of special and functional polymers and polymer additives in small batches and manufacturing of fibres and foils of special- and functional polymers as well of high-tech-polymers with a high melting point
