Publication number: 20150135563Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite iron sole plate coated using sol-gel process with hydrolysis and condensation products of silanes with a metal precursor. The selected silanes are MTEOS and TEOS which give improved and tailored coatings for iron sole plates along with a metal precursor. The invention also relates to a novel method of producing iron sole plates having this coating, as well as an iron having such sole plate. The coating composition, when applied to an iron sole plate, found to be improving surface characteristics in terms of low friction, abrasion resistance, shine prevention and ease of cleaning due to its chemical stability and flatness.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2012Publication date: May 21, 2015Inventor: Besim Tahincioglu
