Abstract: The invention relates to a method for functionalizing the surfaces of adhesive closing parts which form, with correspondingly formed adhesive closing parts, an adhesive closure that can be repeatedly opened and closed. The surface energy of the adhesive closing part is modified by means of a proton and/or electron exchanging medium, especially in the form of donors or collectors, using high energy in such a way that the physicochemical properties of the material of the adhesive closing part can be adjusted without a coating and with ageing resistance, by the attachment of functional groups of the exchanging medium to the adhesive closing part material. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out one such method.

Abstract: A method for producing an adhesive fastening element made of plastic includes a support part (10) from which project a plurality of stem parts (12). A head part (14) is arranged at each stem part opposing the support part (10) and the head parts (14) are formed without the use of molding tools due to the surface tension of the used plastic material. Consequently, no need exists for a specific molding tool for forming the head parts.
