  • Low adhesion sol gel coatings with high thermal stability for easy clean, self cleaning printhead front face applications
    Patent number: 8851630
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide oleophobic, low adhesion coatings with high thermal stability and methods of forming and using them in an ink jet printhead, wherein the oleophobic, low adhesion coatings can include a sol-gel cross-linked coating by a self-condensation process of at least a silane-functionalized perfluoropolyether based polymer precursor.
    Type: Grant

  • Thermally stable oleophobic low adhesion coating for inkjet printhead front face
    Patent number: 8544987
    Abstract: A coating for an ink jet printhead front face, wherein the coating comprises a oleophobic low adhesion coating. When the oleophobic low adhesion coating is disposed on an ink jet printhead front face surface, jetted drops of ultra-violet gel ink or jetted drops of solid ink exhibit a contact angle greater than 45° and a low sliding angle of less than about 30°. In embodiments, the oleophobic low adhesion coating is thermally stable wherein the surface contact angle and sliding angle show little degradation after the coating is subjected to high temperatures in a range between 180° and 320° or thereabout and high pressures in a range between 100 psi and 400 psi or thereabout during printhead fabrication and manufacturing.
