Claim Text:
1. A method for forming a coating material comprising the steps of: (a) providing a carbon chain polymer material selected from the group consisting of polyacrylates, polyepoxides, polyolefins, polyethers, polyesters, polycarbonates, polyamides, polyurethanes, polyimides, polyphenols, cyanate ester polymers, polyureas, resoles, polyanalines, fluoropolymers, polystyrenes, polynitriles, aromatic oxide polymers, and aromatic sulfide polymers, (b) providing a particulate for a coating material; and (c) mixing a nanostructured chemical selected from the group consisting of POSS, POS, and POMS with the polymer and particulate to form a coating material, wherein the nanostructured chemical reactively bonds with the particulate to form a reaction product; wherein the surface roughness or volume of the reaction product particulate is at least twenty-five percent greater or smaller than the surface roughness or volume of the unreacted particulate material selected from (b).
