The present disclosure relates to a method of reactivating the surface of an organic paint coating, a method of facilitating adhesion of a further coating to the organic paint coating, and a substrate having a reactivated organic paint coating. There is also disclosed a surface reactivation treatment for an organic paint coating. The reactivation method also facilitates adhesion of the organic paint coating to further coating(s) across a broad application window.

Surface reactivation treatment

The present invention relates to a method of activating an organic coating to enhance adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or to other entities comprising applying a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent to the organic coating. The invention also relates to a coated substrate having an activated coating, wherein the adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or other entities has been enhanced by application of a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent to the coating. The invention further relates to an activation treatment for an organic coating to enhance adhesion of the coating to a further coating and/or to other entities comprising a solvent and a surface chemistry and/or surface topography modifying agent and a method for the preparation of the activation treatment.

Activation method using modifying agent

The present disclosure relates to polymers which are cross-linked reaction products of a reactive siloxane and/or a polyisocyanate and/or a polyol, a polyamine and/or reactive coating capable of reducing the ability of ice to adhere to the surface of an object, in particular aircraft or other vehicles, methods of producing the polymers and their use in coating surfaces.

Ice adhesion reducing polymers

The present disclosure relates to an FPOSS prepolymer which may be reacted with a reactive coating or a polyisocyanate and/or one or more of a polysiloxane, a polyol, a polyamine and a reactive coating; an FPOSS polyisocyanate prepolymer which may be reacted with one or more of a polysiloxane, a polyol, a polyamine or a reactive coating; and an FPOSS siloxane prepolymer which may be reacted with a polyisocyanate and/or one or more of a polyol, a polyamine or a reactive coating to form cross-linked polymers capable of reducing the ability of ice to adhere to the surface of an object, in particular aircraft or other vehicles, methods of producing the prepolymers and polymers and their use in coating surfaces.

Ice adhesion reducing prepolymers and polymers

A method of activating an organic coating, a coated substrate having an activated coating and an activation treatment for an organic coating. In particular, the activation method improves the adhesion of the organic coating to further coating layers and/or to other entities.
