Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coating protection technology, specifically relating to a fluorinated alkyl silicone oil and its preparation method, and a wear-resistant and hydrophobic coating. Background Technology
[0002] Fluorosilane compounds, with their unique "bifunctional" molecular structure, have become key building blocks for high-performance surface protection materials. One end of their molecules contains highly reactive functional groups (such as alkoxy, chlorine, and alkenyl groups), enabling them to chemically react with various substrates such as metals, glass, and concrete, forming stable covalent bonds and providing excellent interfacial adhesion and durability. The other end of the fluorosilane molecule is connected to perfluoroalkyl or fluoroalkyl segments. These highly fluorinated structures endow the materials with extremely low surface energy, exhibiting excellent hydrophobic and oleophobic properties. In recent years, fluorosilane hydrophobic coatings developed based on these compounds have been widely used in critical engineering fields exposed to harsh environments, such as building exteriors, bridge steel structures, and offshore platform facilities, due to their outstanding water repellency, antifouling, and self-cleaning capabilities. The core value of these coatings lies in their induced superhydrophobic and self-cleaning effects. Water droplets form a high contact angle on superhydrophobic surfaces and easily roll off, simultaneously carrying away surface contaminants such as dust and salt. This property not only significantly reduces maintenance costs but also effectively inhibits the adhesion and accumulation of contaminants such as moisture, oil, and dust on the substrate surface. This is particularly important for applications with high precision or high safety requirements. For example, in the electronics field, effectively preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) induced by contaminants (especially conductive dust) can avoid serious accidents such as short circuits, component damage, and even fires caused by electrostatic discharge in precision electronic equipment. However, existing commercial products still have significant limitations in overall performance. For example, during use, perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs) experience chain segment rearrangement and free volume expansion, allowing oil molecules to easily penetrate and damage the fluorinated surface, resulting in insufficient wear resistance and long-term hydrophobic properties (especially resistance to oily contaminants). These bottlenecks highlight the urgency and significance of developing new high-performance fluorinated silane silicone oils. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a fluorinated alkyl silicone oil and its preparation method, as well as a wear-resistant and hydrophobic coating.

This invention significantly reduces surface energy by introducing fluorinated groups (such as -CF2 and -CF3), achieving hydrophobic and oleophobic properties.

Cotton fabric was immersed in the wear-resistant and hydrophobic coating for 5 minutes, then removed, dried at 80°C for 30 minutes, and then cured at 150°C for 1 hour to form a cotton fabric with a wear-resistant and hydrophobic coating.
[0047] A coating was prepared by mixing 5g of commercially available vinyl fluorosilicone oil (NFS 7300-G35), 0.107g of commercially available hydrogen-containing silicone oil with a hydrogen content of 0.5%, 4g of toluene, and 0.0171g of caster platinum catalyst.

[0052] Performance Test 2 Abrasion-resistant hydrophobic coatings were prepared according to the method of performance test 1. The abrasion-resistant hydrophobic coatings were evenly applied to the surface of the circuit board and dried at 80°C for 30 min, and then cured at 150°C for 1 h to form abrasion-resistant hydrophobic coating. The coating of Comparative Example 1 prepared in performance test 1 was evenly applied to the surface of the circuit board and dried at 80°C for 30 min, and then cured at 150°C for 1 h to form a coating as a comparison.
