Abstract

In this study, we prepared hybrid composites by using low temperature sol-gel process for transparent and hard coating film. The hybrid composites consist of $ZrO_2/TiO_2/organosilane$, of which organosilane was introduced 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate due to the role of a photocurable ceramic material for low temperature process. The ceramic composites with various composition ratios were coated on a polycarbonate substrate using a sol-gel process of low temperature process, and characterized optical and mechanical properties of coated thin film. The transparencies of coated thin films were 97.5 % or more, and the pencil hardness were 9H or more. In the case of the ZTS-2-1, the nano-indentation hardness was measured at the highest value of 1.14 GPa.

본 연구에서는 투명도와 기계적 특성을 향상시키기 위해 저온 공정의 졸-겔 법을 이용하여 하이브리드 복합체의 코팅 박막을 제조하였다. 하이브리드 복합체로는 $ZrO_2/TiO_2/organosilane$을 사용하였으며, 그 중 organosilane은 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate을 사용하였고 이는 저온 공정의 광경화 반응을 위해 도입되었다. 다양한 조성비로 합성된 복합체를 폴리 카보네이트 기판 위에 저온 공정의 졸-겔 법을 이용하여 광경화와 열처리 공정을 거처 코팅 박막을 제조하였고 이 코팅 박막의 광학 특성 및 기계적 강도를 확인하였다. 코팅 박막은 가시광선 영역에서 97.5 % 이상의 투과도를 가짐을 확인하였고 기계적 강도는 9H 이상의 연필 경도를 가진 것을 확인하였다. 특히 ZTS-2-1 코팅 박막의 나노 압입 경도는 1.14 GPa로 가장 높게 측정되었다.
