Definitions

  • the invention generally relates to treated substrates and, more particularly, to treated substrates having hydrophobic and durability properties.
  • Treated substrates are used in various fields to provide enhanced physical properties to untreated substrates.
  • the application or disposition of one or more layers of a composition or compositions to an untreated substrate to form a treated substrate and associated articles may improve a particular physical property or properties as compared to the untreated substrate.
  • the application or disposition of an adhesion promoter layer in combination with a topcoat layer to a glass substrate to form a treated glass substrate may provide an increase in hydrophobicity that allows the treated glass substrate to more easily repel water (i.e., has increased water repellency properties) or be cleaned as compared with the corresponding untreated glass substrate.
  • the enhanced property or properties, such as hydrophobicity, provided by the addition of the one or more layers to the untreated substrate decrease over time due to environmental conditions or the like that adversely impact the durability of such applied layers. It would thus be desirable to form treated substrates that have enhanced durability while providing other desired physical properties such as increased hydrophobicity and associated water repellent properties.
  • the subject invention relates to a treated substrate that comprises a substrate, an adhesion promoter layer disposed on the substrate, and a topcoat layer disposed on the adhesion promoter layer.
  • the adhesion promoter layer is formed from an adhesion promoter composition, with the adhesion promoter composition comprising a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane or a linear organosilane polymer.
  • the topcoat layer is formed from a topcoat composition, with the topcoat composition comprising at least one fluorinated organic silicon compound which contains no etheric oxygen atom and at least one fluorinated organic silicon compound which contains an etheric oxygen atom.
  • the treated substrate has excellent initial hydrophobic properties and related water repellent properties, and retains such hydrophobic properties under a wide variety of test conditions intended to simulate environmental conditions, which evidences the durability of the treated substrates, particularly as compared with other treated substrates that include only one of adhesion promoter layers and topcoat layers as described above, or alternatively as compared with treated substrates utilizing a different adhesion promoter composition or topcoat composition to form its respective adhesion promoter and topcoat layers.

  • the laminated glass panel assembly also includes an interlayer disposed between the inner and outer transparent sheets.
  • the interlayer bonds the inner and outer transparent sheets and allows the laminated glass panel assembly to retain glass panel pieces upon impact or breakage.

  • F-POSS fluorine-containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane
  • the product EnduroShield Home commercially available from PCT Global LLC of Santa Barbara, Calif. and sold at home improvement stores throughout the United States (such as Lowe's) was purchased at a local retailer and applied to the substrates as a topcoat in accordance with the instructions provided on its packaging and was included in Treated Sample 6 below.
  • the process for forming the treated substrates evaluated in the subject invention were as follows.
  • a glass substrate was obtained and cleaned with a 2% CeO 2 solution.
  • the glass substrate was then rinsed with deionized water, and dried using compressed air.
  • a first layer of an adhesion promoter composition (when utilized) was wiped onto the cleaned glass substrate using a soaked sponge. After thirty seconds, a second layer of the adhesion promoter composition was wiped onto the first layer using a soaked sponge.
  • the resultant total thickness was between 20 and 50 nanometers.
  • a topcoat composition was applied onto the layers of adhesion promoter composition, or directly onto the cleaned glass substrate in samples not including the adhesion promoter composition, using a soaked sponge.
  • the topcoat composition was then cured for 45 minutes at a temperature of between about 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit (about 15 to 27 degrees Celsius) at 70% relative humidity for about 45 minutes.
  • the formed treated substrates were cleaned using a solvent such as isopropyl alcohol or acetone.
  • the treated substrates formed in accordance with the procedures described above, were first evaluated for initial water contact angle using ASTM standard D7334-08 (2013). Next the treated substrates were subjected to the following further environmental testing conditions (see Table 3 below), and then the conditioned substrates were reevaluated for water contact angle in the manner described above for the initial water contact angle.
  • treated substrates formed that includes layers of Adhesion promoter composition (1 or 2) and topcoat composition in accordance with the embodiments of the subject invention provided initial water contact angles indicative of the treated substrate having the desired hydrophobic properties, and most closely retained their initial water contact angle measurements over the variety of testing conditions than the other combinations of adhesion promoter compositions and/or topcoat compositions which confirms the durability of the applied layers to maintain such hydrophobic properties.
