Atomized spray plasma deposition (ASPD) using a precursor mixture of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and methacryloyl-functionalized 15 nm silica nanoparticles leads to the formation of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-silica nanocomposite layers. The direct application of these coatings to overlapping glass-glass joints gives rise to excellent in situ adhesion reaching 84 MPa shear bond strength and 6 GPa shear modulus prior to the onset of adherent (bulk glass) failure. This significant enhancement in interfacial adhesion arises due to the silica nanoparticle surface methacryloyl groups enhancing cross-linking throughout the nanocomposite layer.
