  • Method for producing a barrier layer and carrier body comprising such a barrier layer
    Patent number: 10442907
    Abstract: A method for producing a barrier layer and a carrier body including such a barrier layer are disclosed. In an embodiment the method includes providing a carrier body including a polymer film having at least one polymer, drying the barrier interface, exposing the barrier interface to one reagent gas, or to a plurality of reagent gases which do not chemically react with each other, so that the at least one reagent gas chemically reacts with the at least one polymer at least inside the polymer film in at least one chemical reaction thereby forming the barrier layer, and removing at least one product gas of the at least one chemical reaction.

  • Method for producing a three-dimensional structure and three-dimensional structure
    Patent number: 9221217
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a three-dimensional structure. The method according to the invention comprises the following steps: applying to or introducing into a carrier element (1; 7; 16) particles (2), a plurality of at least partially interlinked cavities being formed between the particles (2) and the particles (2) coming into contact in points of contact, and interconnecting the particles (2) in the points of contact by coating the system consisting of particles and the carrier element, the coat (4) produced during coating penetrating the cavities at least to some extent. The method according to the invention allows the production of three-dimensional structures with little effort.
