The second edition of Hot Embossing: Theory of Microreplication will present the current state of the art in microreplication with a focus on hot embossing, nanoimprint, thermoforming, and roll-to-roll replication. Polymer processing, the theory of polymers and the processing of polymers are discussed in detail. Aspects of process simulation and the corresponding material models are also covered. The book contains in-depth analysis of processing processes and replication techniques including mold fabrication. Monitoring, data analysis and reliability of molded parts is also discussed. In the Second Edition new processes are included, including the process of micro- and nanothermoforming to generate 3D structures and the hot pulling processes to generate hierarchical structures with high aspect ratios. Based on hot pulling, 'Nanofur for Oil-water-separation is a large-scale biomimetic application. Upscaling, especially the seamless roll-to-roll replication, is also explored. The book is designed to cover the entire workflow for a seamless lithographic sleeve.This new edition marks a substantial update of the previous edition, incorporating several new chapters. It is an important resource for materials scientists and engineers working in the areas of micro- and nanofabrication. - Comprehensively updated to include new techniques, processes, and variables that have come to prominence in recent years - Includes new chapters that address monitoring, properties of molded parts, 3D thermoforming, hot pulling, functional materials, smart surfaces, and upscaling by roll-2-roll - Discusses the entire microreplication process, from theory and processes to technology and mold to surface-oriented applications

Matthias Worgull is an associated professor and lecturer at the Institute of Microstructure Technology, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany and has more than 20 years of experience in polymer micro structuring by replication processes. He is currently head of the group 'Large Scale Structuring' with focus on the upscaling of hot embossing, nanoimprint, and roll-to-roll replication and the implementation of functional bionic surfaces with enhanced materials.
