MATERIAL-LAYER TECHNICAL DOSSIER
Solid AeroSkin Topcoat
Changing surface energy and microtexture alters droplet adhesion and movement.
PRE-INDUSTRIAL R2WETTING + DROPLET CONTROL
01 · PRINCIPLE & RATIONALE
Intended function
and associated requirement.
Changing surface energy and microtexture alters droplet adhesion and movement.
Reduces retained water without leaving a free oily phase on the hand.
The formulation must balance contact angle, sliding angle, abrasion, transparency, migration and adhesion to PHBH.
02 · TECHNOLOGY STACK
Technologies, roles
and approval gates.
Material and process qualification
- Role
- Converts the design basis into a repeatable specification.
- Why
- Performance depends on the real commercial grade and process window.
- Approval gate

03 · ARCHITECTURE
Function, material
and interfaces.
The layer is functional only if it remains continuous after wet grip, rubbing, thermal cycling and storage.
- Membrane L04
- Condensation
- Skin
- External environment
- 01Solid film
- 02Immobilised carnauba
- 03Micrometre thickness
- 04No free oil
04 · MASTER PARAMETER REGISTER
Everything to be defined,
measured or certified.
A field without evidence is never filled with an invented number: it remains “To be determined”, together with the method required to close it. This is what makes the technical record verifiable.

08 · EVIDENCE POLICY
Traceability
for every parameter.
Mass is measured in micrometres, but compatibility and fate must still be assessed in the full assembly.
This page is the technical register for the R2 configuration. It separates design values, targets, calculations, measurements and certifications. Open fields identify the exact test or document required to close them.
