Glass Surfaces Rendered Hydrophobic by Silylation and Sol–Gel Coatings: Optical, Wetting, and Chemical Stability

Abstract This study presents a comparative evaluation of three strategies for hydrophobizing glass surfaces: direct surface silanization with dimethyldichlorosilane (DMDClSi), the application of a hybrid silica coating (H-SiO2), and the use of a hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS)-modifi...
