This invention provides a self-cleaning
coating composition, a self-cleaning
coating, and a method for preparing the same. The self-cleaning
coating composition comprises a
carbon nanotube dispersion, a first nano-silica dispersion, a second nano-silica dispersion, and hexamethyldisilazane; wherein the first nano-silica dispersion comprises first nano-silica, the second nano-silica dispersion comprises second nano-silica, and the average particle
size difference between the first and second nano-silica is 40–60 nm. This invention utilizes two different hydrophobic nano-silica particles with an average particle
size difference within this range to construct a suitable nano-roughness, while simultaneously increasing the
porosity of the coating by adding a small amount of nanotubes. The roughness construction enhances the self-cleaning performance of the coating, while the micropore construction reduces
light reflection, improves the light
transmittance of the self-cleaning coating, and provides excellent self-cleaning function.
