This work provides detailed spectroscopic, elemental and contact angle analyses for the treatment of borosilicate glass covers. The glass surface was first treated with strong acid to promote hydroxylation, followed by silanisation using 3- (trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate. Attenuated Total Ref...
