چکیده
By mimicking the hydrophobicity and miniature protrusions of the lotus leaves using a monolayer of non-fluorinated hydrophobic polymer and functionalized nanoparticles, respectively, we have developed a permanent nanocoating to create ultrahydrophobic fibers/textiles with excellent water repellency and self-cleaning ability.

Ultrahydrophobic Textiles Using Nanoparticles: Lotus Approach
It is well established that the water wettability of materials is governed by both the chemical composition and the geometrical microstructure of the surface. Traditional textile wet processing treatments do indeed rely fundamentally upon complete wetting out of a textile structure to achieve satisfactory performance. However, the complexities introduced through the heterogeneous nature of the ...
متن کاملEnhanced Procedure for Fabrication of an Ultrahydrophobic Aluminum Alloy Surface using Fatty Acid Modifiers
A superhydrophobic aluminum surface was fabricated through an enhanced low-cost approach and the effects of several relevant factors on static contact angle and sliding angle were investigated. First, the operating parameters including the etching time as well as the reaction time and temperature were varied. Next, the so-called chemical factors including three different fatty acids and five di...
متن کاملFluorinated and Charged Hydrogenated Alkanethiolates Grafted on Gold: Expanding the Diversity of Mixed-Monolayer Nanoparticles for Biological Applications.
Low intrinsic toxicity, high solubility, and stability are important and necessary features of gold nanoparticles to be used in the biomedical field. In this context, charged nanoparticles proved to be very versatile, and among them charged mixed-monolayer gold nanoparticles, displaying monolayers with well-defined morphologies, represent a paradigm. By using mixtures of hydrogenated and fluori...
متن کاملRemoval of Reactive Dyes from Wastewater using Cyclodextrin Functionalized Polyacrylonitrile Nanofibrous Membranes
Electrospinning of nanofibers with cyclodextrin (CD) is attractive because the produced fibers can potentially increase the efficiency of nanofibrous membranes by facilitating the complex formation with organic compounds and high surface area of the nanofibers. In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers functionalized with β– cyclodextrin (βCD) during an electrospinning process were used ...
متن کاملEffect of Fluorination Treatment on Cotton Wettability, Dyeability and Mechanical Properties and Characterization of Surface Changes by XPS
Cotton fabric was treated with fluorine gas in a nitrogen atmosphere. The effect of fluorination treatments on wettability, whiteness index, dyeability and mechanical properties of cotton fabrics were assessed. Kawabata analysis shows that fluorination treatment increases shear stiffness G, shear hysteresis 2HG5, bending stiffness B and overall fabric stiffness Koshi on cotton fabric. Fluorinat...
