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 composed of a set of spherical nanoparticles and their aggregates.
According to X-ray structural analysis, silica nanoparticles used in the work are an
amorphous type of silicon dioxide. Prior to mixing the acrylic dispersions with silica
nanoparticles, an aqueous sol was prepared, in which the sodium salt of polyacrylic acid was used as a stabilizer. The required amount of a stabilizing additive was determined by zeta potential values.
Grafting of aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) onto the surface of the silica
nanoparticles contributed to the increased interfacial interaction between an inorganic
nanoparticle and the polymer matrix and, consequently, to the improvement of the
physical and mechanical properties of the coatings. To enhance the modifying effect,
the treatment of the nanoparticles with silane was performed, ultrasonic dispersion
being used. The resulting nanostructured polyacrylate coatings have significantly
improved properties compared to non-filled coatings, such as hardness and abrasion
resistance. However, the silica content in acrylic compositions is limited due to the
deterioration of the formed coatings transparency, and the gloss in the investigated
concentration range remains higher than the gloss of polyacrylate coatings containing
no nanoparticles. Thus, high-performance characteristics of polyacrylate coatings are
achieved when the content of SiO2 nanoparticles equals 1-3 wt %.
