The invention is directed to a method for attaching nanomaterials containing hexagonal lattices to polymer surfaces. For example, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be attached to polycarbonate, polyethylene, or epoxy surfaces by amination of the polymer surface, functionalization of the surfaces of CNTs with ester groups, and reacting the aminated surface of the polymer with the ester groups of the functionalized surfaces of the CNTs in an organic solvent to chemically bind the CNTs to the polymer surface.

An adhesion promoter comprises a reaction product of: a) a polyepoxide; b) an aminosilane represented by the formula HNR.sup.1R.sup.2. R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 independently represent —Z—SiL.sub.3. Each Z independently represents a divalent linking group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and each L independently represents a hydrolyzable group; and c) an isocyanatosilane represented by the formula O═C═N—Z—SiL.sub.3, wherein Z and L are as previously defined. The adhesion promoter may be used to treat a surface of a substrate such as an abrasive particle, which may be included in a resin-bond abrasive article.

A method for improving corrosion resistance of vinyl ester resin is provided, which belongs to the technical field of polymer materials. The method includes adding vinyl ester resin into a MXene nanosheet solution and evaporating the solvent; then adding cobalt isooctoate promoter and butanone peroxide initiator in sequence, standing for curing after defoaming, and then heating.

The present invention discloses a fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin, an UV-curable varnish and a method for preparing the same, and a method for coating the varnish on a substrate. The fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin is prepared by a process including the following steps: generating an epoxy acrylic resin via a ring-opening esterification reaction between an unsaturated mono-carboxylic acid and at least one epoxy group in an epoxy resin; and generating an epoxy acrylic resin containing fluorinated side groups via an esterification reaction between a fluorocarboxylic acid or a fluorocarboxylic acid anhydride and at least one hydroxy group in the epoxy acrylic resin. The UV-curable varnish according to the invention is prepared based on the fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin. When the varnish is applied to the surface of a substrate, at least one performance of the material, thereby the service life of the material itself may be improved.
