Organic/inorganic hybrid coatings prepared via the sol-gel process have garnered considerable research and commercial interest for application on glass, metallic and polymeric substrates.
The sol-gel process is considered attractive due to simple processing and relative low-cost, resulting in the creation of multi-functional, protective surfaces. This is due to the unique structure and properties of silica-based coatings and of hybrid inorganic-organic silicas in particular.
Enhanced coatings and surfaces obtained via this low-temperature route display a large range of bulk and surface properties that can be tailored by specific applications. The versatility of sol-gel coatings has enabled solutions in industries such a
