Aqueous-dispersion acrylate compositions with different contents of silica nanoparticles (NP) were prepared, which allowed to obtain top transparent coatings with improved abrasion resistance. The nanoscale silica used in the work was obtained by a gas-phase method using high-frequency induction discharge (HFI) in the air atmosphere. The average size of silica nanoparticles measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and laser scattering was 23.5 nm. TEM photos of silica nanoparticles showed that silica was...
