Smooth Water-Based Antismudge Coatings for Various Substrates
Smooth particle-free
antismudge coatings show potential for various
applications because they are not prone to the limitations that plague
rough self-cleaning surfaces such as poor durability and transparency.
These smooth coatings are typically prepared from solvent-based precursors
due to their requirement for amphiphobic moieties. We report herein
a facile strategy to prepare from water-based precursors smooth antismudge
coatings that can be readily applied onto various substrates including
metal, wood, paper, and glass. These novel coatings exhibit unprecedented
antismudge properties even with a thickness of only 5.0 ± 0.5
μm and contain only 0.7744 wt % of fluorinated polymer. In addition,
these transparent coatings retain their antismudge properties even
after they are subject to bending, impact, scratching, abrasion, corrosion,
UV irradiation, and thermal shock tests
