Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to cultural relic protection technology and relates to a coating preparation method, in particular to a method for preparing a SiO2 transparent, high-adhesion, wear-resistant, super-hydrophobic coating with both a mesh and gradient structure for sandstone cultural relics. Background Art

[0002] Sandstone architecture, stone paintings, and carvings are an integral part of the world's cultural heritage, embodying ancient scientific, artistic, and historical significance. However, due to their porous intrinsic structure and exposure to the elements, they are constantly impacted by environmental factors such as temperature fluctuations, rainwater erosion, and bacterial invasion, as well as by human activities. Among these factors, water has been identified as the primary culprit for degradation, as it not only weakens the sandstone's internal adhesion by dissolving soluble components but also contributes to weathering, soluble salt crystallization, freeze-thaw cycles, microbial attachment, and other pathologies. Inspired by the lotus effect, superhydrophobic surfaces, featuring a precise synergy of low surface energy and hierarchical micro / nanostructures, are highly sought after in surface engineering. However, the micro / nanostructures of superhydrophobic surfaces are easily destroyed by external forces, resulting in a loss of superhydrophobicity, severely limiting their practical applications.
