Multifunctional Nano-engineered Polymer Surfaces with Enhanced Mechanical Resistance and Superhydrophobicity
This paper presents a multifunctional polymer surface that provides superhydrophobicity and self-cleaning functions together with an enhancement in mechanical and electrical performance. These functionalities are produced by nanoimprinting high aspect ratio pillar arrays on polymeric matrix incorporating functional reinforcing elements. Two distinct matrix-filler systems are investigated specif...
متن کاملThe Superhydrophobicity of Polymer Surfaces: Recent Developments
Superhydrophobicity is the extreme water repellence of highly textured surfaces. The field of superhydrophobicity research has reached a stage where huge numbers of candidate treatments have been proposed and jumps have been made in theoretically describing them. There now seems to be a move to more practical concerns and to considering the demands of individual applications instead of more gen...
متن کاملBiomimetic graphene surfaces with superhydrophobicity and iridescence.
Triggered by the fantastic functions and bright appearance of biological systems in nature, enormous efforts have been devoted to biomimetic fabrication. For instance, butterfly wings and red rose petals have attracted increasing attention due to their excellent water repellency and splendid structural color. Consequently, colorful superhydrophobic surfaces have become a hot topic with signific...
متن کاملTailoring Hydrodynamics of Non-wetting Droplets with Nano-engineered Surfaces
Considering that contacts between liquid and solid are ubiquitous in almost all energy processes, including steam turbines, oil pumping, condensers and boilers, the efficiency of energy transportation can be maximized such that the liquid-solid interaction is optimized. Texture based super-hydrophobicity, also known as the Lotus effect, has been one of the most extensively studied topics in the...
متن کاملElectrodeposited polymer films with both superhydrophobicity and superoleophilicity.
Electrodeposited films of poly(ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) present a rough morphology and are wettable by water and oil. The covalent binding of low free energy fluorinated chains on the monomer before polymerization lowers the surface energy of the electroformed polymers sufficiently to give rise to superhydrophobic behaviour while conserving superoleophilicity. It holds the promise of an ...
