Abstract
Siliconcarbide (SiC) ceramic powder incorporated inorganic-organic nanocomposites were prepared by sol-gel spin coating method. Coating properties and abrasion resistance of the hybrid polymers were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), EDX analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). Mechanical tests like surface static corrosion analysis, abrasion test, scratch-tape test, adhesion test, chemical and solvent resistance, surface hardness were performed in order to evaluate the coatings for possible industrial applications. Prepared polymers were applied onto the aluminium substrates. Results revealed that industrially available SiC ceramic powder incorporated inorganic-organic nanocomposites can be prepared with an easy and controlled way using sol-gel method and applied onto the aluminium surfaces by spin coating without using primer solution and shows excellent abrasion resistance.
