Objective
- usage of water as solvent for inorganic-organic nanocomposite materials
Methods
- preparation of sol-gel derived inorganic-organic nanocomposite coating materials
- removal of organic solvents
- generation of water-compatibility
- application with common wet-coating techniques; afterwards thermal curing
- incorporation of oxidic nanoparticles by surface modification
Results
- coatings with high optical transparency
- high scratch- and abrasion resistance
-
|
- good adhesion on glass and plastics after suitable pretreatment
- functionalization possible (e. g. adaptation of refractive index, anti-fogging,
corrosion protection, ...)
Applications
- transparent scratch resistant coatings
- functionalized coatings
- extensive coatings with low emissions during application
- branches: household, construction
Advantages
- low environmental load
- high safety at work
- low costs for pollution abatement
