Abstract
Two silane-based hybrid coatings were developed to modify the surface
energy of phenolic resin impregnated paper. The coated paper samples
were further pressed onto surfaces of plywood. The surface properties
and water repellence of coated paper were investigated by AFM, XPS and
water contact angle measurements. The water absorption of plywood with
pressed paper was studied by water uptake tests. It was found that the
sol-gel coatings had slightly improved the water repellence of the
impregnated paper. The water absorption of plywood was also slightly
decreased.
