An anti-graffiti coating (AGC) is a protective layer applied on the surface (all types including
cultural heritage and metallics) to limit possible vandalism phenomena. AGCs are one of the …

A novel triazine-based fluorinated diol, CC-F, was synthesized from cyanuric chloride (CC),
octafluoropentanol (OFP), and ethanolamine (MEA). Subsequently, a series of fluorinated …

Two phase latex particles offer a potential route to obtain homogeneous, transparent and
mechanically strong films with low minimum film formation temperature (MFFT) without the …

A series of fluorine-containing water-based polyurethane (FWPU) were synthesized by
using fluoro alcohol-terminated isocyanate trimer (F-HDIT) prepared from 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6 …

Anionic emulsifiers, synthesized from novel silicone RAFT reagents (RAFT-PDMS), acrylic
acid, lauryl methacrylate, and methyl methacrylate, were used to create a macromolecular …

Without a fragile micro/nanostructure, omniphobic coatings have a natural advantage over
superomniphobic coatings in mechanical durability, especially when confronted with finger …

Graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) was added as reinforcement to novel blend of polyurethane
(PU) and poly (ethylene-co-ethyl acrylate-co-maleic anhydride)(PEEAMA) with an intended …

Polyurethanes as one of the leading elastomers are explored in academics as well as in
industry. These are segmented macromolecules having alternate sequence of soft and hard …

In this study, two commercial sacrificial anti-graffiti systems, provided as water emulsion,
were applied on a highly porous stone. The behavior of the anti-graffiti treatments was …

Smart coatings have gained recognition in material sciences, colloidal chemistry, biomedical
sciences, and polymer chemistry due to the inherent properties and chemistry they possess …
