The Institute for nanoscale and biobased Materials investigates 

• the surface chemistry of mostly nanoscale functional materials and their application in
  • biological, chemical, and physical sensors
  • membranes for separation processes in gas or liquid phase
  • medical bone replacement implants
  • fuel cells and electrolyzers
  • (photo)catalysis
  • microfluidics
• the production of bio-inspired reactive and living materials from sustainable and bio-based sources.

In addition to the development of new materials and the functionalization of existing materials, the Institute of nanoscale and biobased Materials develops 

• coating methods from liquid and gas phase, also under clean room conditions
• Methods of additive manufacturing, in particular inkjet and paste printing as well as electrospinning
• reactions in emulsion systems and
• methods for the mechanical characterization of soft matter

The courses offered by the institute focus on these core competencies and enable students to independently recognize and work on nano- and biotechnological issues at the end of their studies.
