摘要

An organic-inorganic hybrid anti-fogging coating composed of polyoxometalates and hydrophilic resin

with enhanced adhesion and cohesion

achieves high abrasion resistance

UV stability

and durable superhydrophilicity for various substrates.

Abstract

Achieving long-term anti-fogging performance while maintaining high visible-light transmittance is of critical importance for transparent substrates. However

challenges remain in achieving satisfactory abrasion resistance and weatherability of anti-fogging coatings across different substrates. In this work

an organic-inorganic hybrid anti-fogging coating was developed by integrating a highly adhesive hydrophilic polymer resin with polyoxometalates (POMs). The hydroxyl groups along the polymer chains provide excellent adhesion

while the presence of hydrophilic ionic groups facilitates the rapid formation of a continuous water film upon exposure to water vapor. Moreover

the multiple protons carried by the POMs not only form interfacial bonding with the substrate to further enhance adhesion

but also form multiple hydrogen bonding interactions with the polymer chains to strengthen the coating's cohesion and reduce its surface roughness. As a result

the coating exhibits outstanding abrasion resistance

maintaining excellent anti-fogging performance even after 1200 abrasion cycles under a 500 g load. Fu

rthermore

the strong UV absorption of POMs prevents photoaging of the polymer resin in outdoor environments

imparting remarkable weather resistance. After 240 h of accelerated UV aging (0.68 W/m

60 °C)

the coating still delivers effective anti-fogging functionality. This study provides a generalizable strategy for designing environmentally friendly

long-lasting anti-fogging coatings with promising applications in glass

optical devices

and agricultural films.
