Abstract:
The synthesis and characterization of a hybrid ceramic-polymer coating with high wearing resistance and designed to cover wood surfaces, are reported in this work. This hybrid material provides a high wearing resistance (400% higher than a conventional commercial product typically used to protect these surfaces); additionally it has a high UV resistance and high transparency and gloss. The wood surfaces were previously treated either with a primer coating or with a special coupling agent, before the hybrid coating was applied; in both cases, good adhesion with the substrate was obtained.
