The PVT films (f-PVT) with different TTBO content, 5, 20 and 25wt% TTBO, were prepared by adding the stoichiometric amount of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) to PVT solutions in ethanol, dip-coating over glass substrates, and curing using an appropriate thermal cycle and time. The hardness and elastic modulus of f-PVT were tested by continuous stiffness measurement (CSM) of nanoindentation, and the tribological behaviors were comparatively investigated with a nanoscratch test. The influence of the different TTBO contents on the mechanical properties of f-PVT was discussed. The scratch and friction coefficient profiles of f-PVT were illustrated. As the results of the test, f-PVT with 20% TTBO showed the better scratch resistance and tribological behavior.展开更多

Films were synthesized by adding the stoichiometric amount of ethylenediamine (EDA) and benzoyl proxide (BPO) to SSO solutions in ethanol, dip-coating over glass substrates, and curing using an appropriate thermal cycle. Intrinsic values of hardness and elastic modulus were determined with the average values in “plateau region” from “four-layer” explanation.
