The hard-coat preferably a hardness above 0.5 GPa, more preferably above 0.7 GPa and most preferably above 1.0 GPa as measured by nano-indentation and/or a reduced tensile modulus above 3 GPa, more preferably above 8.5 GPa or 20 GPa, most preferably above 40 GPa as measured by nano-indentation and/or a scratch resistance above 5 mJ μm−3, preferably above 15 or 30 mJ μm−3, preferably above 60 mJ μm−3 as measured by nano-indentation, and/or contains an amount of inorganic nano-particles from 5 to 75 weight %, preferably from 15 to 50 weight % relative to the weight of the second material present in the hard-coat.Preferably, the spatial length scale of the refractive index gradient in the single layer hard-coat is between 10 and 1000 nm; in particular between 100 and 200 nm.Also concerned is a process for preparing a single layer hard-coat, comprising the steps ofa) applying a mixture on a substrate, which mixture comprises i. at least a first material which does not crosslink under the conditions chosen in step b) ii. at least a second material which does crosslink under the conditions chosen in step b) iii. nano-particles, and iv. optionally at least one solvent b) inducing crosslinking in the mixture applied to the substrate, v. subsequently removing at least part of the first material, and shaped articles comprising such single layer hard-coat.
摘要:
The invention relates to hydrophobic coatings comprising reactive inorganic nano-particles, as well as their use in industrial processes. These coatings combine hydrophobic or even super-hydrophobic properties with superior mechanical properties and easy proccessability. Some super-hydrophobic coatings may even have self-cleaning properties. These hydrophobic and super-hydrophobic coatings may be applied in the food industry, exterior or interior decoration, automobile industry and display industry. Also comprised within the invention are finished articles comprising a coating of inorganic nano-particles.

摘要:
A sol-gel process for preparing a mixture of metal-oxide-metal compounds wherein at least one metal oxide precursor is subjected to a hydrolysis treatment to obtain one or more corresponding metal oxide hydroxides, the metal oxide hydroxides so obtained are subjected to a condensation treatment to form the metal-oxide-metal compounds, which process is carried out in the presence of an encapsulated catalyst, whereby the catalytically active species is released from the encapsulating unit by exposure to an external stimulus, and wherein the catalytically active species released after exposure to such external stimulus is capable of catalyzing the condensation of the metal-hydroxide groups that are present in the metal oxide hydroxides so obtained.
