This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18362225 titled 'NONAQUEOUS SOL-GEL FOR ADHESION ENHANCEMENT OF WATER-SENSITIVE MATERIALS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes sol-gel films and substrates with sol-gel films.
- Sol-gel formulations used in the invention have low water content (10 wt % or less).
- The sol-gel formulations consist of organosilane, metal alkoxide, acid stabilizer, and organic solvent.
- Vehicle components are coated with a sol-gel system, which includes a metal substrate and the sol-gel formulation.
- The sol-gel formulation on the vehicle components also has low water content (10 wt % or less).
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides sol-gel films and substrates, such as vehicle components, having a sol-gel film disposed thereon. At least one sol-gel formulation has about 10 wt % or less water content based on the total weight of the sol-gel formulation and comprises an organosilane, a metal alkoxide, an acid stabilizer, and an organic solvent. At least one vehicle component comprises a sol-gel coating system comprising a metal substrate and a sol-gel formulation disposed on the metal substrate. The sol-gel formulation has about 10 wt % or less water content based on the total weight of the sol-gel formulation and comprises an organosilane, a metal alkoxide, an acid stabilizer, and an organic solvent.
