Abstract
The invention relates to a self-cleaning self-regenerating surface structure and/or a self-cleaning self-regenerating coating. For improving the cleaning function, the invention proposes a self-regenerating surface structure, especially coating, comprising biocatalytic and/or anti-icing molecules on an exposed surface of said surface structure, especially coating, and biocatalytic and/or anti-icing molecules embedded or contained in said surface structure, especially coating. Further, the invention relates to an object provided with such surface structure or coating and a method for producing the same.
