Optical Coating by Hybrid Sol
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 March 2011
Abstract
The fluorocarbon/SiO2 hybrid sol (L) for low refractive index coating was made by tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and polytetrafluoroethylether derivative(PTFEED) with the hydrolysis and condensation in ethanol to get with coating refractive index as (nL=1.38). It can be coated on glass with single layer by quarter wave, the anti-reflective (AR) coating glass would have less than 3 % reflection. The TiO2 hybrid sol are prepared by tetraisopropyl orthotitanate(TPOT) with silane coupling agent and acrylic resin. The TiO2 hybrid sol with the coating refractive index (nH=1.75) used as high refraction coating sol (H). More acrylic resin added to get less coating refractive index (nM=1.65) used as middle refractive coating sol (M). Three layers AR coating glass can be made by M/H/L design to get 1.0 % reflection, have 3H hardness, 500g scratch resistance, and 107° water contact angle. These two kinds AR coating with fluorocarbon /SiO2 hybrid sol (L) coating on surface has anti-stain efficacy, which can be applied on the touch panel screen of flat panel display for mobile phone, PDA and e-book.
