In this study, highly transparent siloxane-based hybrid UV-curable coating materials were prepared using (acryloxypropyl)methylsiloxane monomer (APMS), a thiol-ene monomer, with benzoin ethyl ether. For the thiol-ene monomer, either pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) (PETTMP) or trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (TMPTMP) was used. The siloxane-based hybrid coating materials were highly transparent and hard (pencil hardness of 6–7H). The materials were also amphiphobic, with a water static contact angle of 92–100° and an oil contact angle of 46–63°, when prepared with a high siloxane-monomer-to-PETTMP/TMPTMP ratio. In general, both hybrid coating materials exhibited improved oleophobicity, high hardness, and surface smoothness with increasing siloxane content, although the TMPTMP-based hybrid coating films exhibited slightly higher oleophobicity (lower hydrophobicity) and a smoother surface than the PETTMP-based hybrid coating films.

The dynamic contact angle model is applied in the formation process of a series of bubbles from Period-I regime to Period-II regime by using the VOF method on a 2D axisymmetric domain. In the first process of the current research, the dynamic contact angle model is validated by comparing the numerical results to the experimental data. Good agreement in terms of bubble shape and bubble detachment time is observed from a lower flow rate Q = 150.8 cm3/min (Re = 54.77, Period-I regime) to a higher flow rate Q = 603.2 cm3/min (Re = 219.07, Period-III regime). The comparison between the dynamic contact angle model and the static contact angle model is also performed. It is observed that the static contact angle model can obtain similar results as the dynamic contact angle model only for smaller gas flow rates (Q ≤ 150.8 cm3/min and Re ≤ 54.77)). For higher gas flow rates, the static contact angle model cannot produce good results as the dynamic contact angle model and has larger relative errors in terms of bubble detachment time and bubble shape.

Hybrid sols were synthesized through a combination of hydrolysis and condensation reactions of tetraetoxysilane and γ-Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane together with the addition of a colloidal silica suspension. A transparent, hard UV-curable hybrid coatings based on hybrid sols were prepared in order to improve the scratch and abrasion resistance of PMMA substrate. The effects of the content of colloidal silica suspension on pencil hardness, transmittance, and haze were investigated. The pencil hardness of all coating films in this study can be tuned from 4H to 9H, whereas that of uncoated PMMA substrate is 1H. The higher hardness of the coatings can be attributed to the dense structure induced by the increase of network density with the addition of colloidal silica suspension. Furthermore, it is found that the transmittance of coatings slightly fluctuates between 91.8% and 93.6% with increasing colloidal silica content. These results indicate the good compatibility of the organic and inorganic components.

New discovery was found by the capillary experiments with circular glass tubes and partial-wetting liquids that the partial liquid volume under moon surface could be expressed by equivalent height function H(r). Contact angle models suggested in this work, evaluated by Eq. 5, was eventually given by the concept of equivalent height, and so-determined models presented a much higher accuracy on prediction of contact angle compared to Jurin formula.
