Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2019021016A1] The invention provides a heat exchange element comprising a substrate and a coating, wherein the coating is present on at least a part of a flow path defined by the heat exchange element. The coating comprises a metal and has a structure comprising spikes having a length of up to 100 µm; the average length of the spikes various throughout the coating. The invention also provides a method of transferring heat to or from a fluid which comprises providing the fluid to a flow path of the heat exchange element of the invention. The invention further provides a process for producing a heat exchange element of the invention, wherein the process comprises providing an electroless deposition solution to a surface of a substrate. The invention further provides a flow process for producing a heat exchange element and a heat exchange element obtained or obtainable by that process.
