Vapor-Gas Deposition of Polymer Coatings on Metals from Azeotropic Solutions of Organosilanes

The mechanism of vapor-gas deposition of vinyltrimethoxysilane (VS) and ethylene glycol (EG) from azeotropic solutions is investigated, which allows to reduce the evaporation temperature of the components of working mixtures. The need for such studies is associated with the development of a new direction in the technology of vapor-gas deposition of polymer coatings. Methods have been developed for monitoring the chemical composition of working solutions in evaporators using optical spectroscopy, which allow calculating the partial pressures of vapor phase components. Based on these studies, compositions of working solutions are proposed that allow to equalize the partial pressures of the components of working mixtures with a large difference in boiling point. A new method of vapor-gas deposition of non-volatile powder inhibitors on metals is proposed. Chemical compositions of siloxane coatings were determined using XPS and mechanisms of interaction of VS with polymerization promoters ethylene glycol and 1-hydroxy ethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) were proposed.
