Abstract
A new invisible nanolevel coating has been developed based on the sol-gel process for veneer finishes. The sol synthesis and its application as a protective agent is described. It could be demonstrated that a combination of organic light stabilizers and sol-gel deposits is feasible and that the resulting hybrid inorganic-organic thin films decrease moisture uptake of hardwood veneers.
