【 摘 要 】

A thermochromic waterborne coating with thermal insulation efficacy was prepared by adding thermochromic microcapsules and glass fiber powder. The influence of the pigment volume concentration (PVC) of a glass fiber powder on the performance of the thermochromic coating for Chinese fir boards was investigated. It was found that a coating with a PVC of glass fiber powder of 0–22.0% had better discoloration properties. When the PVC of the glass fiber powder was more than 4.0%, with the increase of the PVC, the gloss of the coating decreased gradually, while, the adhesion, impact resistance, and liquid resistance were not affected. When the PVC of the glass fiber powder was 10.0%–30.0%, it showed thermal insulation efficacy and high hardness. The coating with a PVC of 16.0% glass fiber powder had better wear resistance. The discoloration property of the coating with thermal insulation efficacy was not affected by time. These results exhibit great potential for the application of a wood surface thermochromic and thermal insulation coating.
