Organic coatings inorganic binders

Zinc dust coatings are utilized in large quantities for the protection of structural steel, also including underwater steel construction and ship building [5.56]. Zinc dust is used in organic and inorganic binder systems (alkali silicates, ethyl silicates) [5.56, 5.105]. 

Silanes. Silanes and silane derivatives dominate the small market for inorganic binders. These materials are used both m combination with organic binders and by themselves. As co-binders, they increase the chemical and moisture resistance of a film, When used by themselves, they form brittle, very chemical-resistant films. Silane coatings are usually more expensive than their organic counterparts and must be kepi dry before application,... 

Organic coated micro bubbles and inorganic silicon networks have been discussed. Another remarkable fmish is similar to these products evacuated micro bubbles from silicon compounds, fixed with an acrylate binder on the fibre surface provide new insulation textiles. The high insulation value of the vacuum and the reflectance of the ceramic bubbles of this so-called liquid ceramic fmish protects very effectively from heat and cold. ... 

Zinc-rich coatings can be classified as organic or inorganic. The organic zinc-riches have organic binders, with polyamide epoxies and chlorinated rubber binders being the most common. Other types such as urethane zinc-rich are also available. These latter coatings are more easily applied than the other zinc-rich... 

Zinc-rich coatings are subdivided as organic or inorganic. The organic zinc-rich coatings have organic binders such as polamide epoxies, chlorinated rubber binders, and urethane binders. 

One potential solution to these problems, suggested some 20 years ago by Chantrell and Popper (1), involves the use of inorganic or organo-metallic polymers as precursors to the desired ceramic material. The concept (2) centers on the use of a tractable (soluble, meltable or malleable) inorganic precursor polymer that can be shaped at low temperature (as one shapes organic polymers) into a coating, a fiber or as a matrix (binder) for a ceramic powder. Once the final shape is obtained, the precursor polymer can be pyrolytically transformed into the desired ceramic material. With careful control of the pyrolysis conditions, the final piece will have the appropriate physical and/or electronic properties. 

The literature from 1979 to the present shows that the major application areas for colloidal silica involve coatings and inorganic-organic compositions. Most of these compositions use the silica sol in a binder application. Japanese research far exceeds that of all other countries.
