  • Publication number: 20240150522
    Abstract: Provided is a water-repellent member in which a silica layer having a specific thickness and mainly composed of silica nanoparticles is provided on the outer surfaces of various substrates, and then a water- and oil-repellent layer having a specific thickness and containing a cured product of a fluorine-containing organosilicon compound as a main component is provided on the outer surface of the silica layer. The water-repellent member is obtained by a method comprising: a step for wet coating a dispersion containing silica nanoparticles and a solvent onto the outer surface of a substrate; a step for drying and removing the solvent from the dispersion; a step for wet coating a solution containing a fluorine-containing organosilicon compound and a solvent onto the outer surface of a silica layer formed by drying and removing the solvent; and a step for drying and removing the solvent from the solution to cure the fluorine-containing organosilicon compound.

  • Patent number: 11624858
    Abstract: Provided is an antireflective member that has a water- and oil-repellent layer on a multi-layered antireflective layer and is capable of exhibiting excellent surface lubricity, water- and oil-repellent properties, and durability. The surface of the multi-layered antireflective layer on a base material has a root-mean-square surface roughness of 0.8 nm to 2.0 nm. The water- and oil-repellent layer has a thickness of 1 to 30 nm and is a cured product of water- and oil-repellents having as principal components a fluorooxyalkylene group-containing polymer modified organosilicon compound with the numerical average molecular weight of 4,500 to 10,000 of a fluoropolymer part and/or partial hydrolysis condensate thereof.

  • Publication number: 20210189174
    Abstract: This fluorine-containing coating agent composition contains: (A) an organic silicon compound containing a hydrolyzable group or a hydroxy group modified by a fluorooxyalkylene group-containing polymer residue, and/or a partial (hydrolyzed) condensate thereof; and (B) an organic silicon compound containing a polyether group and a hydrolyzable group or a hydroxy group modified by a fluorooxyalkylene group-containing polymer residue, and/or a partial (hydrolyzed) condensate thereof, wherein the mixture mass ratio of component (A) and component (B) is 15:85-85:15. When the composition is applied as a surface treatment agent, the surface treatment agent containing the fluorine-containing coating agent composition can form a cured coating film which has excellent water repellency and oil repellency, and which has both excellent steel wool abrasion resistance and eraser rubber abrasion resistance.
