Due to their unique physicochemical properties, polysilazanes exhibit excellent performance when combined with some resin matrixes, which had drawn great research attention. In this article, polyurethane (PU) was firstly prepared by polytetrahydrofuran glycol, isophorone diisocyanate, and 1,4-butanediol as main materials. Then, the prepared PU was blended with polysilazane by mixing the two solutions together, which was cured to films via dip-coating method at room temperature. The structure, thermal stability, and surface properties of the composite coatings were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results demonstrated that after modification with polysilazane, the heat resistance, hydrophobicity, and mechanical property of the PU coatings were improved. When the content of polysilazane was 6 wt%, the mechanical property of the composite films was optimized, with a maximum tensile strength of 25.7 MPa and elongation at break of 797%. Meanwhile, the water contact angle of the composite film was 107° and the water absorption reached a minimum of 2.1%, which showed improved hydrophobicity and water resistance.

In this study, we have successfully synthesized Fe3+ doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films on glass substrates using the sol-gel dip-coating method. After synthesizing, the samples were annealed at 5000C in the air for 1 hour. The characteristics and optical properties of Fe3+ doped SiO2/TiO2 films were then investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). An antifogging ability of the glass substrates coated with the fabricated film is investigated and explained by a water contact angle under visible-light. The analyzed results also show that the crystalline phase of TiO2 thin films comprised only the anatase TiO2, but the crystalline size decreased from 8.8 to 5.9 nm. We also observed that the absorption edge of Fe3+- doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films shifted towards longer wavelengths (i.e. red shifted) from 371.7nm to 409.2 nm when the Fe3+-doped concentration increased from 0 to 1 % mol.

TiO2 is one kind of semiconductor-based photocatalyst. TiO2 shows relatively high reactivity and chemical stability under ultraviolet (UV) light. However TiO2 is poor absorber of photons in the solar spectrum. In order to improve the absorption efficiency, the coatings of TiO2/ZnFe2O4, ZnFe2O4and TiO2 on ITO were prepared by dip coating method, their microstructure, surface properties, photocurrent and photo absorption are investigated in this paper. XRD results show that the phases on the composite coatings are mainly TiO2 and ZnFe2O4 and the main phase on ZnFe2O4 and TiO2 coatings is ZnFe2O4 and TiO2 respectively, the SEM results show that the coatings of TiO2 and TiO2/ZnFe2O4 are distributed evenly on the materials surface and the AFM results show that the grain size is about 20nm. The experimental results also show that the absorption wavelength of composite coatings of TiO2/ZnFe2O4 is 454nm, which is larger than that of TiO2 coatings (370nm). Under the irradiation of Xe lamp light, a photocurrent of 27µA/cm2 on the materials surface could be obtained.

Mesoporous TiO2 films was prepared by evaporation-induced self-assembly and dip-coating method. And the pore size of the TiO2 films is adjusted by controlling the molar ratio of H2O/TiO2 (H value). Water contact angle was chosen to represent the hydrophilic property, and XRD and AFM were carried out to characterize the films. With the increase of H value, the pore size increased firstly then decreased. And when H is 15, the pore size is the biggest, which hydrophilicity in dark is the best too. With the extention of the non-irridation time, the hydrophilicity is worse. And the reason may be ascribed to the adsorption of organic matter in air.

The S+Ce co-doped TiO2 nanocomposite films deposited on glass substrate had been synthesized by the sol–gel dip-coating method. The as-synthesized samples were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra analysis technologies. The surface morphology and surface chemical composition of the S+Ce co-doped TiO2 nanocomposite film had been primarily investigated. The results shows that the properties of doped TiO2 thin films with different ions have close relations with the intrinsical properties of S and Ce doped ions, the absorption edge shifted towards visible light region and the water contact angle of the surface of the nanocomposite films with the water droplet was only 6°, indicating that the S+Ce co-doped TiO2 nanocomposite film showed promising applications in the self-cleaning and other potential fields.

A series of the magnesium apatite coatings according to (Ca10-xMgx)(PO4)6(OH)2, where x = 0 to 2, was synthesized through a sol-gel dip-coating method. The roughness of the magnesium coatings increased as more magnesium incorporated into the coatings. The mechanical properties of the coatings were analyzed with Nanoindentor. The incorporation of magnesium decreased the hardness and the Young’s modulus of the coating. The X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed that only part of magnesium was incorporated into the apatite structure while the rest existed in the form of MgO in the coating.

The development of novel flame retardants for cotton textiles that form a stable layer on textile fiber is of high economical and practical relevance. A novel flame retardant fluorinated phosphoric acid esters modified silicone resins for cotton modification were synthesized. The investigated phosphoric acid esters based compounds were substituted by a fluorinated chain or ring, and alkoxysilyl groups. The presence of alkoxysilyl groups allowed the formation of bonds with cellulose, while derivatives of phosphoric esters reduced the flammability of fabrics. Additionally, the presence of fluoride in their structures affected the hydrophobic properties. Cotton fabrics were modified in a simple one-step process by dip-coating method. The flame retardant properties of modified textiles were examined by performing microcalorimetric analysis, thermogravimetry analysis, and measuring oxygen index. The hydrophobicity was evaluated by measuring the water contact angle. The modified fabrics were characterized by SEM-EDS (Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy) analysis and surface morphology. As a result of the tests, multifunctional fabrics were obtained.

The facile, simple, highly efficient, and fluorine-free fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces on fabrics with high durability has attracted considerable attention because of its urgent practical application. The simple dip-coating method was adopted to make a stable and durable polydimethylsiloxane/stearic acid/silica (PDMS/STA/SiO2) superhydrophobic fabric. The fabric’s surface morphology, roughness, and composition were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. The PDMS/STA/SiO2-coated fabric: demonstrated strong superhydrophobicity (a water contact angle (WCA) of around 163°), efficiently repelled different liquids (milk, coffee, orange juice, Coca-Cola, and 1 M of HCl and NaOH) with a contact angle above 155°, had excellent self-cleaning performance, and retained superhydrophobicity with a WCA greater than 150° after 72 h of ultraviolet irradiation and 700 cycles of mechanical abrasion. The PDMS/STA/SiO2 coating had few influences on the color fastness of the fabric. Superhydrophobic coatings are expected to be practically applied in the textile industry.

The hydrophobic surface can be self-cleaning. The hierarchy of surface roughness affects the hydrophobic surface. In this research, the hydrophobic surface was fabricated by modification of surface roughness from the composite filler. Natural silica was used as a filler and was done a variation of calcination temperature to modify the hierarchy of roughness formed. The variation of calcination temperature was 800°C, 1000°C, 1200°C, and 1400°C. The coating method was a dip-coating method by 30-second long immersion. A glass as coating media was coated by PVDF/SiO2 composite. The hydrophobic surface could be known from the value of the water contact angle (WCA) formed. If a water contact angle more than 90°, the surface could be called the hydrophobic surface. In this research, the hydrophobicity aspect cause of variation of calcination temperature was known from the value of water contact angle formed on the surface of PVDF/SiO2 composite coating 800°C, 1000°C, 1200°C, and 1400°C was 117,12° ± 0,98°, 107,80° ± 0,91°, 121,31° ± 1,45°, and 111,75° ± 1,47°, respectively.
