Use of nano-structured modifiers to improve the operational characteristics of pipelines’ protective coatings

Resumo

Hybrid nanostructured products based on silicate matrix were produced using sol-gel technology from alkali-silicate solutions of polyvalent metal salts with organic oligomer–Epoxy resin ED-20. The possibility of the use of hybrid products as modifiers for the preparation of coatings based on epoxy resin was demonstrated. The effect of the structure of hybrid modifiers on the physico-mechanical properties of the coatings was analyzed.
