SUBSTRATE, SUCH AS A GLASS SUBSTRATE, WITH A HYDROPHOBIC SURFACE AND IMPROVED DURABILITY OF HYDROPHOBIC PROPERTIES AND A PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A substrate, with at least one surface to be rendered hydrophobic, has a hydrophobic surface structure incorporating an essentially mineral sub-layer containing silicon and an outer layer of a hydrophobic agent grafted onto the sub-layer. The sub-layer is put in an active state prior to coming into contact with the An independent claim is also included for the fabrication of this substrate.
