An Investigation on Acrylic Organic Coatings Including Colemanite and Zeolite for Glass Materials

Abstract

Today, acrylic organic coatings are very important point for glass materials because glass has very huge area in the industry. Glass may physically be defined as a rigid. In chemically, the non-volatile inorganic oxides form from the decomposition of alkali and alkaline compounds, sand, and other glass constituents. Especially, human being uses the glass as decorative object, bottles, eye glasses, windows, and kitchen utensils in daily life. Colemanite is a borate mineral and a secondary mineral that forms by alteration of borax and ulexite. Zeolites are microporous, aluminosilicate minerals. It is commonly used as commercial adsorbents and catalysts. In this study, the acrylic organic coatings were tried to improve physical and chemical properties of glasses with using colemanite and zeolite. In addition, Taguchi Method was used to optimize the parameters for obtaining high quality and low-cost materials. The analysis results (TG-DTA, SEM) showed that the compositions of the all experiments were protected in terms of thermal properties with additives and physical appearances of the samples matched with reference sample. To conclude, additives are improved the properties of organic coatings and the results showed that the coatings produced could be evaluated in the industry.

Optimization and Enhancement of Decorative Glass Organic Coating Properties Containing Ulexite Mineral

“…(Figure 6). As a result, it was seen the process was affected the water loss of crystallization through condensation of B-OH groups C. The results were compatible as seen from the results of different materials used in glass paintings [26][27][28]. SEM results showed that the physical morphology of reference coating was similar with optimum sample of coatings (Figure 7).…”
