This paper mainly studies an inorganic coating based on geopolymer technology. Metakaolin is used as raw material, and water glass solution is used as alkali activator to prepare geopolymer. The surface properties including crack resistance and scrub resistance of the obtained coating were improved by adding certain amount of resin and fillers such as silicone acrylic emulsion, mica powder, and MgO powder. The results show that when the contents of silicone acrylic emulsion, mica powder, and MgO powder are 19.00%, 3.20%, and 2.16–2.86%, respectively, the surface properties of the coating are optimal. Especially noteworthy is that adding MgO can enhance the surface properties of the prepared coating, the mechanism of which can be rationalized by the inhibited shrinkage of the coating via microcrack deformation, the enhanced compactness and the filled pores of the coating upon adding MgO. In addition, the flame retardancy of the samples was explored through thermal analysis and cone calorimeter.

The fluidization quality significantly affects the mass transfer and the deposition reaction, which determine the uniformity of deposited TiO 2 thin films on fluorophlogopite particles. It was found that the effective addition ratio of nano-TiO 2 particles is above 0.2 wt% to realize fluidization of fluorophlogopite particles. The addition of nano-TiO 2 particles leads to competitive deposition between free TiO 2 particles and fluorophlogopite particles, which decreased the coating rate of TiO 2 on fluorophlogopite particle. Besides, the existence of free TiO 2 particles on pearlescent pigment particles decreases the glossiness. The gas-solid ratio primarily determines the number of the free TiO 2 particles on pearlescent pigment particles. It was summarized that the optimal value of addition ratio of nano-TiO 2 is 0.4 wt% with the gas-solid ratio of ∼0.05 m 3 kg −1 h −1 to enhance the fluidization quality on the one hand, and to reduce the free TiO 2 particles on the other hand.
