Cover: The small punch test was proposed as a new polymer‐metal adhesion test that allows fundamental studies of the adhesion properties of soft nanocoatings for stent applications. The cover picture illustrates the effect of a 25% plastic deformation on thin fluorocarbon films. Further details can be found in the article by F. Lewis and D. Mantovani * on page 11.
