| | Lotus flower effect
A principle from nature: The lotus flower effect.That is the water repelling characteristic of surfaces, to simply let water drops pearl off and to repel dirt. LotuTec® acts as protective coating and cleaning and care is made especially easy.
This technology has been used by Carl Zeiss for millions of spectacle lenses for a long time.

A contact angle of max. 95° leads to flat water drops.

As with most leaves, moisture and dirt particles
collect on the surface and adhere.
|
| 
Contact angles more than 110° lead to ball-like water drops.

Just like in a lotus flower, the drops simply pearl off. Dirt and finger prints can be easily removed from the smooth surface. |
