Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a silicon dioxide sol-gel coating, a preparation method and a product, and belongs to the field of surface treatment. Background Art
[0002] Solar energy is currently the world's largest energy source. Photovoltaic power generation offers advantages such as environmental friendliness, versatility, and zero loss. However, low photoelectric conversion efficiency severely hinders the large-scale application of solar cells. Therefore, improving the transmittance of photovoltaic glass plays a vital role in enhancing solar photoelectric conversion efficiency. Currently, one of the most effective methods for increasing the transmittance of photovoltaic glass is to deposit an anti-reflective (AR) coating on the surface of the glass.
[0003] In recent years, AR coatings have been widely used in applications such as solar collectors, display devices, architectural glass, cathode ray tubes, filters, and photovoltaic modules due to their excellent heat resistance, hydrophobicity, ultra-low refractive index, and high transmittance. For AR coatings, the refractive index (RI) is a critical optical parameter, reflecting the light transmission loss at the interface between two different optical materials at a given wavelength. Reported results indicate that the RI of single-layer AR coatings can be as low as 1.23, approaching the RI (1.52) of many optical materials. However, for bulk materials, the RI is typically higher than 1.23. Therefore, to reduce the RI, researchers have developed methods and techniques that introduce air into the material to achieve a lower RI. Currently, oblique angle deposition (OAD) and nanoscale etching are considered two very effective methods for introducing air into bulk materials. However, both methods have significant disadvantages. For example, OAD methods typically require high vacuum conditions, while nanoscale etching techniques require highly corrosive reagents. These drawbacks have severely hindered their large-scale application. Therefore, there is a need to develop safer, cheaper, and more time-efficient methods to reduce the RI of coatings. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:
[0006] A silica sol-gel coating comprises, by weight, 10,000 parts of tetraethyl silicate, 30,000-60,000 parts of saturated fatty alcohol, 10-30 parts of a dispersant, 1,000-10,000 parts of water, 5,000-50,000 parts of fluorosilane, and 1-20 parts of glucomannan, wherein the dispersant is one or more of linoleic acid, linolenic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid.
[0007] Furthermore, the raw material composition includes, by weight, 10,000 parts of tetraethyl silicate, 40,000-50,000 parts of saturated fatty alcohol, 15-25 parts of dispersant, 2,000-9,000 parts of water, 10,000-40,000 parts of fluorosilane, and 3-15 parts of glucomannan.
[0008] Furthermore, the saturated fatty alcohol is one or more of methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and butanediol.
[0009] Furthermore, the fluorosilane is 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorododecyltriethoxysilane.
[0010] Furthermore, the average molecular weight of the glucomannan is 10,000-30,000.
[0011] The method for preparing the silica sol-gel coating as described above comprises the following steps:
[0012] S1. Mix tetraethyl silicate, saturated fatty alcohol, dispersant and water in a uniform ratio, adjust the pH value to 9-11 with a pH adjuster, and stir the mixture at 20-60° C. for 15-45 minutes to obtain a mixed solution.
[0013] S2, subjecting the mixed solution to a microwave treatment, and then cooling the mixed solution to obtain an intermediate solution;
[0014] S3. After uniformly mixing the intermediate solution with fluorosilane and glucomannan, the mixture is subjected to a second-stage microwave treatment. After cooling, the pH regulator is removed to obtain a silica sol-gel coating.
[0015] Furthermore, in S1, the pH adjuster is one or more of ammonia water, potassium hydroxide, and sodium hydroxide, preferably ammonia water.
[0016] Optionally, in S1, mechanical stirring is performed, preferably magnetic stirring.
[0017] Optionally, in S1, the reaction is stirred at 25-50°C for 20-40 min, and further, the reaction is stirred at 30-45°C for 25-35 min.
[0018] Furthermore, in S2, during the microwave treatment, the microwave power is controlled to be 100-600 W, further to 150-500 W, and further to 200-400 W; preferably, the microwave frequency is 20-100 Hz, further to 30-90 Hz, and further to 40-80 Hz; preferably, the reaction time is 20-90 min, further to 30-80 min, and further to 40-70 min.
[0019] Furthermore, in S3, during the second stage microwave treatment, the microwave power is controlled to be 100-600 W, further 150-500 W, further 200-400 W; preferably, the microwave frequency is 20-100 Hz, further 30-90 Hz, further 40-80 Hz; preferably, the reaction time is 20-90 min, further 30-80 min, further 40-70 min;
[0020] Preferably, the pH adjuster is aqueous ammonia, and the pH adjuster is removed by vacuum rotary evaporation.
[0021] Preferably, the mass concentration of the ammonia water is 20-50%, more preferably 25-40%.
[0022] Under the action of base catalysis and microwaves, tetraethyl silicate can rapidly undergo self-hydrolysis and self-polymerization. At the same time, under the action of a dispersant, a microwave treatment can first generate well-dispersed spherical nano-silica as a core. Subsequently, after being evenly mixed with fluorosilane and glucomannan, the fluorosilane is further accelerated to hydrolyze to generate hydroxyl groups under the action of base catalysis and microwaves, and the hydrolyzed 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorododecyltriethoxysilane is promoted to undergo self-polymerization reaction with the nano-silica generated in the early stage. At the same time, through the hydrogen bonding effect between glucomannan and nano-silica, the glucomannan is adsorbed on the surface of the nano-silica, and finally a silica sol-gel coating solution with a core-shell structure of varying sizes is obtained, which is conducive to obtaining a coating surface with a rough structure. This rough structure coating is not only conducive to light transmission, but also conducive to surface corrosion protection.
[0023] A product includes a substrate, the surface of which is provided with a coating formed by curing the silica sol-gel coating or the silica sol-gel coating prepared by the preparation method; preferably, the substrate is made of glass or aluminum alloy.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] (1) The silica sol-gel coating of the present invention contains silica particles with a core-shell structure of varying sizes, which is very beneficial for obtaining a coating surface with a rough structure.

The coating formed by curing after being applied to the surface of a substrate not only has an ultra-low refractive index and an ultra-high transmittance, but also has good corrosion resistance, demonstrating multifunctionality.
[0026] (2) The preparation process of the present invention adopts microwave reaction. Compared with the traditional simple acid or base catalysis, the time required for synthesizing the silica sol-gel coating is greatly shortened, and the total reaction time is only about 1-2 hours.
[0027] (3) The preparation method of the silica sol-gel coating of the present invention has advantages such as simple operation.
[0028] (4) The preparation process of the present invention does not require high vacuum conditions or highly corrosive reagents, and has the advantages of safety, environmental protection, and low cost. Compared with existing technologies such as oblique angle deposition and nano-scale etching, it has a better prospect for large-scale promotion and application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0064] Four N70 aluminum alloy plates with a size of 5 cm × 5 cm were cut and polished using 300-mesh, 500-mesh, 800-mesh, and 1200-mesh sandpaper, respectively. After polishing, the plates were cleaned with deionized water, anhydrous ethanol, and acetone under ultrasonic conditions, and then dried under vacuum for later use.
[0065] The PSPF-0.5, PSPF-1.0, PSPF-1.5 and PSPF-2.0 sol-gels prepared above were coated on the surface of the treated N70 aluminum alloy plate (area of about 10 cm) in sequence by rotary spraying. 2 ), then cured at 200 ° C for 10 minutes, and then the corresponding coatings were obtained (the thickness of each coating was controlled to be 36.5 ± 1.5 μm), and the corresponding coatings were marked as PSPF-0.5-C, PSPF-1.0-C, PSPF-1.5-C and PSPF-2.0-C coatings.
