F) were purchased from Gelest Inc (Morrisville, PA). All chemicals were used as received without further purification. Paper (Gel Blot paper, Whatman#1, and Whatman#50) was purchased from GE Healthcare (NJ, USA) and used as received, without purification. The silanization reaction was conducted in a chamber with a volume of 0.01 m 3 at a temperature set at 95 °C. The silanizing reagent is transferred into a glass vial under inert gas atmosphere and placed inside the chamber together with the samples. Each experiment typically required approximately 100 mg of silane in 5 mL of anhydrous toluene. The silane

Omniphobic RF Paper Produced by Silanization of Paper with Fluoroalkyltrichlorosilanes
The fabrication and properties of “fl uoroalkylated paper” (“R F paper”) by vapor-phase silanization of paper with fl uoroalkyl trichlorosilanes is reported. R F paper is both hydrophobic and oleophobic: it repels water ( θ app H 2 O >140°), organic liquids with surface tensions as low as 28 mN m −1 , aqueous solutions containing ionic and non-ionic surfactants, and complex liquids such as bloo...
متن کاملRapid fabrication of pressure - driven open - channel microfluidic devices in omniphobic RF paper 3
This paper describes the fabrication of pressure-driven, open-channel microfluidic systems with lateral dimensions of 45–300 microns carved in omniphobic paper using a craft-cutting tool. Vapor phase silanization with a fluorinated alkyltrichlorosilane renders paper omniphobic, but preserves its high gas permeability and mechanical properties. When sealed with tape, the carved channels form con...

متن کاملSilicone Brushes: Omniphobic Surfaces with Low Sliding Angles.
Losing contact: Omniphobic surfaces can be readily produced by acid-catalyzed graft polycondensation of dimethyldimethoxysilane (PDMS). Droplets show a very small contact angle hysteresis as well as a low sliding angle of only a few degrees. The nm-thick PDMS layer is neither easily washed away nor depleted. This method offers a novel approach towards the preparation of super-liquid-repelling s...
متن کاملOmniphobic Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Membrane for Desalination of Shale Gas Produced Water by Membrane Distillation.
Microporous membranes fabricated from hydrophobic polymers such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) have been widely used for membrane distillation (MD). However, hydrophobic MD membranes are prone to wetting by low surface tension substances, thereby limiting their use in treating challenging industrial wastewaters, such as shale gas produced water. In this study, we present a facile and scalabl...
