In this paper, a thin stearic acid (SA) film was deposited onto the polyurethane (PU) coatings with different concentrations of stearic acid in the ethanol (1 wt.%, 2 wt.% and 3 wt.%) by centrifuged technique. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) and water contact angle (WCA) method were performed to characterize and evaluate the hydrophobic layer formed on the surface of the samples. |
