Novel liquid–solid adhesion superhydrophobic surface fabricated using titanium dioxide and trimethoxypropyl silane

摘要: Abstract The present paper reports the preparation of very simple and inexpensive superhydrophobic surfaces fabricated using titanium dioxide lower alkyl chain silane (trimethoxypropyl silane) in aqueous or non-aqueous solvent. solvent had same static water contact angle, but showed different angle hysteresis liquid–solid adhesion. Superhydrophobic surface high (CAH). In addition, adhesion is which droplet roll on will not off out during tilting fell down when turned upside down. reason for such novel behavior explained basis measurements (WCA) data, profilometry, SEM images, XPS FTIR-ATR analysis. These results are compared with self-cleaning properties. Based WCA, analysis, it shown that difference CAH more chemical origin than morphology.
