i used sol-gel route. try to make easy clean nano coating on glazed surface and glass. i used silane water acid hydrolysis so far...but seems not effective and air dry.....
Hello Patel Kalpesh, I am not working myself on this Topic, but some colleagues of mine do for many years. You may check for papers by Dr. Mehner et al. or directly contacting him at mehner @ iwt-bremen.de. Best regards, Ruediger

i want make air dry, high hardness and hydrophobic coating, so far i have made some, but drying time is more than 30 hours, too long ...i need make simple.....some products available already in market.... e.g. ceramic pro.....quite interesting....i think they have cook some kind of PDMS.........i am willing to such....
