Abstract

Fabrication of zirconia nanoparticle coatings by the ionic self-assembled monolayer (ISAM) method is reported. This technique allows the preparation of dense and homogeneous thin films of very small ZrO2 particles with improved properties. The structure of the ZrO2/polymer nanocomposite thin film is shown schematically in the Figure. It is demonstrated that the obtained coatings have higher hardness compared to similar zirconia films.
