---|---|
1 | When the composition mass ratio of SJ-32F resin to 9825 resin is 9:1, the coating has a hardness of 3H–4H suitable for mobile phone screens. |
2 | When the mass ratio of modified nano silica is 1.7%, the coating contact angle can reach more than 150°, the rolling angle is less than 10°, and the coating light transmittance remains high at 91–95%. |
3 | The cross-cut method is used to detect the adhesion of the coating; the prepared coating has a smooth scribe edge, no peeling off is at the edge and intersection, and the bonding force reaches 5B. The average bonding force tested by the adhesion pull tester is about 5.4 MPa, and the bonding force is good. |
4 | As the number of rubbing increases, the contact angle of the coating is basically unchanged, and the light transmittance of the coating is reduced; when the rubbing number reaches 100, the light transmittance remains above 80%. |
5 | Compared with the existing research results about transparent coatings of mobile phone screens, the transparency of the transparent superhydrophobic coating can be increased by 5–8% and the wear resistance can be increased by 50% under the condition of maintaining superhydrophobic properties. |
