Fluorine Based Superhydrophobic Coatings
Superhydrophobic coatings, inspired by nature, are an emerging technology. These water repellent coatings can be used as solutions for corrosion, biofouling and even water and air drag reduction applications. In this work, synthesis of monodispersive silica nanoparticles of ~120 nm diameter has been realized via Stöber process and further functionalized using fluoroalkylsilane (FAS-17) molecule...
متن کاملAnti-icing superhydrophobic coatings.
We use nanoparticle-polymer composites to demonstrate the anti-icing capability of superhydrophobic surfaces and report direct experimental evidence that such surfaces are able to prevent ice formation upon impact of supercooled water both in laboratory conditions and in natural environments. We find that the anti-icing capability of these composites depends not only on their superhydrophobicit...
متن کاملIn situ, noninvasive characterization of superhydrophobic coatings.
Light scattering was used to measure the time-dependent loss of air entrapped within a submerged microporous hydrophobic surface subjected to different environmental conditions. The loss of trapped air resulted in a measurable decrease in surface reflectivity and the kinetics of the process was determined in real time and compared to surface properties, such as porosity and morphology. The ligh...
متن کاملInfluence of flow on longevity of superhydrophobic coatings.
Previous studies have demonstrated the capability of superhydrophobic surfaces to produce slip flow and drag reduction, which properties hold considerable promise for a broad range of applications. However, in order to implement such surfaces for practical utilizations, environmental factors such as water movement over the surface must be observed and understood. In this work, experiments were ...
متن کاملEffect of nanoroughness on highly hydrophobic and superhydrophobic coatings.
The effect of nanoroughness on contact angles and pinning is investigated experimentally and numerically for low-energy surfaces. Nanoroughness is introduced by chemical vapor deposition of tetraethoxysilane and was quantified by scanning force microscopy. Addition of a root-mean-square roughness of 2 nm on a flat surface can increase the contact angle after fluorination by a semifluorinated si...
