To achieve anti-stain performance, fluorocarbon composite coating with a low surface energy was prepared and studied. In this paper, SiO2 nanoparticles were used as inorganic fillers and fluorocarbon resin was used as the substrate to form anti-stain coatings. By adjusting and optimizing the ratio of fillers and organic resins, coatings with different static contact angles were constructed. The optimum composite coating has a contact angle of 151 \u00b1 2\u00b0 and a surface energy of 9.6 mJ\/m2. After high-temperature treatment (up to 200 \u00b0C), immersion in corrosive solutions (pH 3\u201311), and sandpaper abrasion (after 5 abrasion cycles), the coating has been proven to show good thermal, chemical and mechanical stability. Our study provides significant research and market opportunities for the anti-stain application of the fluorocarbon composite coating on power equipment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma16247516","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,5]],"date-time":"2023-12-05T08:09:17Z","timestamp":1701763757000},"page":"7516","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Fabrication of a Fluorocarbon Low Surface Energy Coating for Anti-Stain Applications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Siwei","family":"Pan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Electric Power Research Institute of Guangdong Power Grid Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510080, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qing","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Physics and Technology, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yaohong","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electric Power Research Institute of Guangdong Power Grid Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510080, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qing","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electric Power Research Institute of Guangdong Power Grid Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510080, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuanyuan","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Physics and Technology, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yihua","family":"Qian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electric Power Research Institute of Guangdong Power Grid Co., Ltd., Guangzhou 510080, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6439-4094","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chunqing","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Physics and Technology, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"47","article-title":"Characterization of nano-additive filled epoxy resin composites (ERC) for high voltage gas insulated switchgear (GIS) applications","volume":"23","author":"Hari","year":"2022","journal-title":"Int.
