| Currently active in the Swedish Defence Administration Nanotechnology Programme in which they address self decontaminating surfaces. The Institute is developing anti-microbial coating systems, by polymer resin and Sol-Gel technology, to be applied on hard or flexible surfaces. Anti-microbial effects are investigated by accelerated exposure test to different medias. The state of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility for defence uses. They are also involved in a project in which they will render steel surfaces anti-microbial. There is a keen interest of Swedish Industry in avoiding biofilm formation in process water systems. They have had discussions with Scania and Volvo to avoid biological growth in large cutting fluid systems. In the pulp and paper industry there is also a serious concern of biological growth.
