AI Technical Summary
Existing anti-fog coatings have poor anti-fog performance and short lifespan, limiting their application in scenarios such as eyeglasses, swimming goggles, bathroom mirrors, car windshields, and medical goggles. Cationic curing systems have advantages in thick film curing, adhesion, abrasion resistance, and hardness, but existing technologies have failed to fully utilize these characteristics.
A cationic curable antifog coating was prepared by combining silicone-modified acrylic resin with silica microspheres and then irradiating it with ultraviolet light. The modified silica microspheres were added to the coating to reduce the water-oil contact angle, improve the hydrophilicity of the coating, form a transparent water film, and reduce light scattering.
The prepared coating has excellent mechanical properties, solvent resistance, adhesion and light transmittance, significantly improves anti-fogging performance, is suitable for visually sensitive scenarios, and extends service life.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing an anti-fog coating based on cationic curing, belonging to the field of polymer materials technology. Background Technology
[0002] With increased environmental inspections, high-volatile solvent-based coatings face the risk of being completely banned. UV curing technology, characterized by fast drying, energy saving, low VOC emissions, and excellent film performance, has seen rapid development in recent years, and its products are now used in numerous fields. UV curing mainly employs two curing mechanisms: free radical and cationic. Free radical curing systems offer fast curing speeds and easily adjustable product performance, but suffer from issues such as susceptibility to oxygen inhibition, severe polymerization volume shrinkage, low precision, and poor adhesion. In contrast, cationic curing systems are oxygen-resistant, capable of thick film curing, exhibit minimal volume shrinkage, strong adhesion, wear resistance, and high hardness, leading to a gradual increase in their application scenarios and usage.
[0003] In recent years, the development of anti-fog coatings has been very rapid. In applications such as eyeglasses, swimming goggles, bathroom mirrors, car windshields, medical goggles, and face masks, it is necessary to prevent water vapor from condensing into small droplets on the surface to maintain transparency. Therefore, there is a need to develop anti-fog coatings suitable for these applications. Currently, commercially available anti-fog coatings have poor anti-fog performance, short lifespan, and limited application scenarios, which seriously restricts the development of anti-fog coatings. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Purpose of the Invention: The purpose of this invention is to provide a cationically curable organosilicon-modified acrylic resin. After being uniformly stirred with epoxy resin, a certain amount of modified silica (SiO2) microspheres are added. Upon ultraviolet irradiation, a cationically cured antifog coating is obtained. The cured film of this coating exhibits properties such as water resistance, stain resistance, solvent resistance, and weather resistance. The silica (SiO2) microspheres significantly reduce the water-oil contact angle of the coating, giving the cured film excellent antifog performance. It has wide applications in automotive windshields, rearview mirrors, medical devices, eyeglass lenses, and goggles.

This promotes the uniform spread of condensate into a transparent water film rather than dispersed droplets, reducing light scattering and emphasizing transparency maintenance. It also provides excellent anti-fogging performance and is suitable for visually sensitive scenarios. Future applications and prospects are expected to expand further. Detailed Implementation
