mikrovakopinta
Mikrovakopinta is a Finnish term used to describe a surface that exhibits micro-scale texture or roughness. In practice, mikrovakopinta refers to a surface topology with features on the order of micrometers, which can influence interfacial properties such as adhesion, wettability, wear behavior, and optical response. The concept is common in materials science, surface engineering and tribology, where controlled microstructure at the surface is leveraged to tailor performance.
Creating a mikrovakopinta involves various processing methods. Mechanical finishing such as grinding or milling and chemical
Measurement and characterization rely on roughness parameters and imaging techniques. Areal roughness metrics (such as Sa,
