New inorganic/organic hybrid coating containing epoxidized soybean oil were prepared. Three sol‐gel precursors [titanium (IV) i ‐propoxide, titanium (IV) di‐ i ‐propoxide bis‐acetoacetonate, and zirconium n ‐propoxide] were utilized as the inorganic phase. Various coating properties, including adhesion, hardness, impact resistance, flexibility and tensile properties, were investigated as a function of sol‐gel precursor type and concentration. All ceramer coatings exhibited excellent flexibility and hardness. Tensile strength and hardness increased with sol‐gel precursor concentration. A slight decrease in adhesion and impact resistance was observed with increasing precursor content.
