Abstract: Generally described herein are adhesion promoter compositions, which can be formed, for example, via a two-step synthetic process. In some embodiments, the first step of the synthetic process involves the hydrolysis and polycondensation of an organosilane monomer compound, thereby providing a polyorganosilane intermediate compound. In certain aspects, the organosilane compound may be hydrolyzed and polycondensed in the presence of a chain extender (e.g., a co-monomer) to provide an oligomeric adhesion promoter with greater degrees of functionalization. In some embodiments, the second step of the synthetic process involves the hydrosilylation of the polyorganosilane intermediate compound with a hydro silane-containing compound, resulting in a compound of the adhesion promoter.

Abstract: In one aspect, curable coating compositions are provided that comprise (i) one or more organosilanes; and (ii) one or more compounds comprising a substituted acrylate moiety, a substituted acrylamide moiety or a substituted vinyl ether moiety. The compositions can produce a strong outer coating layer on a variety of substrate surfaces.

Abstract: Functionalized fluoro polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (F-POSS) materials as additives to improve liquid repellence of various polymers, the additive including at least one functionalized F-POSS material, wherein the functional group is at least one material selected from the group consisting of amines, isocyanates, epoxies, carboxylic acids, and esters.

Abstract: A treated substrate comprise a substrate, an adhesion promoter layer disposed on the substrate, and a topcoat layer disposed on the adhesion layer such that the adhesion layer is between the topcoat layer and the substrate. The adhesion promoter layer is formed from an adhesion promoter composition, with the adhesion promoter composition comprising a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane or a linear organosilane polymer. The topcoat layer is formed from a topcoat composition, with the topcoat composition comprising at least one fluorinated organic silicon compound which contains no etheric oxygen atom and at least one fluorinated organic silicon compound which contains an etheric oxygen atom.

Abstract: A process for forming a coating on a substrate comprises forming a non-fluorinated alkyl silane hydrolysate polymer and applying the non-fluorinated alkyl silane hydrolysate polymer to a surface of the substrate. The formed invisible-fingerprint coating can have an initial oil angle less than 50°.
