Improvement of hydrophobic properties of ceramic bathroom tiles



The hydrophobic character of ceramic tile surfaces improves their utility value and facilitates cleaning.

 

The proposal by the Department of Molecular Engineering encompasses plasma modification of ceramic material surfaces by deposition of a thin silicon-carbon layer on the ceramic surface. Plasma effects on the ceramic surface induce modification reactions, changing the properties and morphology of such a surface. The application of this technology provides the surfaces of ceramic products with highly hydrophobic features. 

 

This technology targets the manufacturers of ceramic products.
