A European Training Network for Functional Hybrid Coatings by Molecular Layer Deposition

Status: This project has ended and is no longer actively maintained.

As the first European Training Network at the intersection of chemistry, physics, materials science and engineering dealing with the synthesis and applications of hybrid coatings grown by Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD), HYCOAT aimed to create a group of exceptionally well-trained young researchers who have a deep understanding of all aspects of MLD technology, as well as broad vision on the application potential of hybrid coatings.

Thank you to everyone who participated or supported the project.
