Carboxylate‐containing organic coatings can be used for their dispersion, lubrication, durability or hydrophobic applications with ceramic or glass surfaces. Such applications intimately depend upon the nature of the structural interaction of the organic coating on the surface of the inorganic material. In this study, organic polymers such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and polyacrylate (PAA) were coated on either ceramic or silicate‐containing glass powders. Investigated ceramic materials included alumina, barium titanate and bismuth oxide‐containing cuprate superconductors. The structural interactions between the organic coatings and the inorganic materials were determined by analyzing and interpreting Diffuse Reflection Infrared Fourier Transform (DRIFT) spectra. Depending upon the nature of the investigated materials, various metal‐carboxylate complexes were formed at the interfaces along with hydrogen‐bonded or non‐hydrogen‐bonded protonated PAA or PMMA.
