| Abstract | The present work focuses on the development of functional polyurethane hybrids through the incorporation of surface modified TiO$_{2}$ nanoparticles. For improving the nano-particle dispersion and increasing possible interactions between nano-particles and polyurethane matrix, the surface of the nano-particles was modified with 1,3,5-triazine core silane coupling agent. The surface modification of nanoparticles was confirmed by FESEM, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopic techniques. The functionalized nanoparticles were then inscribed in 0, 1 and 2 weight percentages into polyurethane matrix. The as prepared composite coatings were investigated for various anti-microbial, thermo-mechanical and anticorrosive properties. The tensile strength of polyurethane was improved by 300 % upon addition of 2 wt% of modified TiO$_{2}$ nanoparticles as compared to neat polyurethane. Fog test and electrochemical polarization studies suggest that the corrosion resistance increases with increase of the modified TiO$_{2}$ content in the coating formulation. The composite coatings also have good resistance towards various bacterial and fungal stains as compared to the pure polyurethanes. The coatings substantially gain hydrophilic nature symbiotically with TiO$_{2}$ content suggesting its potential application as self-cleanable material. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
