The invention concerns a sol for sol-gel coating of a surface, said sol comprising in weight percentage: a) 3 to 30 %, preferably 5 to 20 %, more preferably 7 to 15 %, more preferably still 8 to 15 %, and more preferably still 10 to 13 %, for example 10.8 % or 12 % of at least one zirconium, aluminum, or titanium organometallic compound; b) 5 to 50 %, preferably 5 to 40 %, more preferably 10 to 40 %, more preferably still 15 or 20 to 30 %, for example 22 % or 23 % of at least one organosilane compound; c) 1 to 15 %, preferably 2 to 10 %, more preferably 2 to 8 %, for example 5 % of at least one compound selected among acids, bases, glycols and ethoxyethanol; d) the rest to make up 100 % being demineralized or distilled water; the total content in a) and b) being higher than 30 %, preferably higher than 31.2, 31.5, 32 or 33 %, more preferably higher than 35 %, more preferably still higher than 40 %, more preferably still more than 50 %. The invention also concerns a kit comprising: a first container holding a first part A in liquid form including the constituents a), c) and d) of the sol; a second container holding a second part B in liquid form including the constituent b) of the sol. The invention further concerns a method for preparing a sol-gel coating using said sol and the resulting coating, and a substrate coated with at least one such sol-gel. The invention also concerns a method for preparing a coating comprising several layers on a surface of a substrate, at least one of said layers being a sol-gel coating prepared by the inventive method. |
