Influence of nanosilica/polyurethane composite coating on IR effectiveness and visible light transmission properties of polyethylene

Polyethylene (PE) film was coated with nanosilica-polyurethane layer using rod Mayer process. The nanosilica-polyurethane system was prepared by dispersing nanosilica (SiO2) powder into solvent borne polyurethane (PU) binder under vigorous stirring. Various compositions of nanosilica-polyurethane sl...
