Abstract

$TiO_2-SnO_2$ nanoparticles with an average diameter of 3~5 nm were synthesized by hydrolysis of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) and tin chloride to depress the photocatalytic activity of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. Organic-inorganic hybrid coating solutions were prepared by reacting the $TiO_2-SnO_2$ nanoparticles with 3-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) by the sol-gel method. The hard coating films with high refractive index were obtained by curing thermally at $120^{\circ}C$ after spin-coating the coating solutions on the polycarbonate (PC) sheets. The coating films from $TiO_2-SnO_2$ nanoparticles showed an improved pencil hardness of 3H compared to 2H of the coating films from $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. Besides, the refractive index of the coating films from $TiO_2-SnO_2$ nanoparticles enhanced from 1.543 to 1.623 at 633 nm as the Sn/Ti molar ratio increased from 0 to 0.5.

$TiO_2$ 나노입자의 광촉매 반응을 억제하기 위해 평균 직경 3~5 nm의 $TiO_2-SnO_2$ 나노입자가 titanium tetraisopropoxide(TTIP)와 tin chloride의 가수분해 반응에 의해 합성되었다. 생성된 $TiO_2-SnO_2$ 나노입자를 졸-겔법에 의해 3-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane(GPTMS)과 반응시킴에 의해 유-무기 혼성 코팅 용액이 제조되었다. 그 후 코팅 용액을 기재인 polycarbonate(PC) 시트 위에 스핀 코팅시키고, $120^{\circ}C$에서 열경화 시켜 고굴절률 하드코팅 도막이 제조되었다. $TiO_2-SnO_2$ 나노입자로부터의 코팅 도막은 $TiO_2$ 나노입자로부터 얻어진 코팅 도막의 2H에 비해 증가된 3H의 연필경도를 보였다. 또한 $TiO_2-SnO_2$ 나노입자로부터의 코팅 도막의 굴절률은 Sn/Ti 몰 비가 0에서 0.5로 증가함에 따라 633 nm 파장에서 1.543으로부터 1.623으로 향상되었다.
