Abstract:Superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted attention due to their hydrophobic, self-cleaning, anti-icing, and oil/water separation properties. The present study used a nonwoven fabric as a flexible substrate and constructed a high-adhesive superhydrophobic surface by coating the fabric
with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-co -polymethyl hydrogen siloxane (PMHS) polymers and embedding mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles. The water contact angle (WCA) of the superhydrophobic surface was up to 165.2° at a PDMS to PMHS ratio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
