TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of antifouling coatings, and particularly relates to a modified polysilazane coating, a modified polysilazane coating layer, and a preparation method and a repairing method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Surface and interface science plays an important role in many industrial technologies, and the friction and wear of surfaces and the biofouling are long-standing and costly challenges. In marine engineering, biofouling can increase the roughness of the surface of a ship, increase the sailing resistance of the ship, and cause the fuel consumption to soar. In addition, biofouling can also cause the degradation of the surface coating of the ship, accelerate the corrosion of the metal structure, and affect the service life of the marine equipment. Traditional antifouling technology mainly relies on toxic agent release type antifouling paint containing organic tin, cuprous oxide and the like. However, while these toxic agents inhibit the fouling organisms, they also continuously accumulate in the marine environment, causing harm to non-target organisms and disrupting the ecological balance. Although the subsequently developed low-surface-energy antifouling coatings (such as organosilicon and fluoropolymer) are environmentally friendly, their “anti-adhesion” mechanism relies on high speed (shear force), and the antifouling effect is poor on equipment running at static or low speed, and their wear resistance is insufficient. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a coating system that has excellent antifouling performance and excellent wear resistance.
[0003] In recent years, the surface grafting polymer brush technology, especially the polyethylene glycol (PEG) or zwitterionic polymer (such as polysulfobetaine, PSBMA) brush, has shown great potential for environmentally friendly antifouling due to its ability to effectively repel the attachment of proteins and other marine organisms by forming a dense hydration layer. However, conventional polymer brushes are usually fixed on the substrate by “grafting to” or “grafting from” methods, and their interface connection is mostly physical adsorption or irreversible chemical bond. Once the polymer brush layer is damaged under long-term use or mechanical friction, its antifouling function will be permanently lost, and it cannot realize self-repairing or functional regeneration, which limits its application in marine environments that require long-term service. SUMMARY

The coating was subjected to 5000 cycles of reciprocating wear under a load of 5 N, and after the friction test, the contact angle and friction coefficient of the surface were measured.
