Fluoralkylpolysiloxane modified Polyurethane (FSPU) films with high water contact angle (CA) were prepared. fluoralkylpolysiloxane was obtained using perfluoro octyl sulfuryl fluoride and terminal amino-silicone oil as reactants. Then, the isocyanate end capped PU prepolymer was synthesized by reacting isocyanate with a soft segment mixed by active amino-end-capping fluoralkylpolysiloxane and polyether glycol. The fluoralkylpolysiloxane modified PU films were obtained after the PU prepolymer was cured by 3,3 '- dichloro -4,4' – amino - diphenyl methane (MOCA). The results showed that the modified polyurethane with 10% (mass fraction) PFATPS had a good compatibility, low surface energy, surface water contact angle and surface oil contact angle was improved by 49° and 37° respectively, and heat resistance, water resistance was apparently improved.

Superhydrophobic Property

A superhydrophobic LDPE film was obtained by a simple method in atmosphere without addition of low-surface-energy materials. The water contact angle of the superhydrophobic LDPE film are 155±1.9º. SEM shows that compared with common smooth LDPE film, a porous structure was obviously observed on the superhydrophobic LDPE film. Such a special surface microstructure may result in the superhydrophobic property. The effect of drying temperature and concentration on water contact angle were studied.

Abstract Polyester diol PCL and PBA, polyether diol PTMG and polycarbonate diol PCDL were used as components of WPU soft segment, respectively. Polyether PTMG-WPU has the worst hydrolytic property and the highest thermal stability. The maximum degradation rate temperature Tmax is 407.8°C, the water contact angle reaches 89.5°. Traditional polyester PCL-WPU shows the strongest hydrolysis performance, the smallest water contact angle, only 71.7°, the water absorption rate of 72 hours at room temperature is as high as 26.7%. However, the thermal stability of PCL-WPU is lower, the soft segment Tg is -52.3°C, and Tmax is only 333.7°C, but the mechanical propertie of which is the best, the tensile strength is 58.3 MPa, and the elongation at break reaches 857.9%. The most important thing is that the structure of polyester PCL-WPU is more easily destroyed by lipase and water molecules. The acidic products produced after hydrolysis will further promote the degradation of polyester. Therefore, compared with other WPUs, PCL -WPU has the best biodegradability and the most obvious degradation effect under the same conditions. The degradation rate of PTMG-WPU after 30 days of degradation in 0.6% lipase PBS buffer solution and soil was only 4.2% and 2.3%, while the highest degradation rate of traditional polyester PCL-WPU reached 41.7% and 32.0%, respectively. In addition, polycarbonate PCDL-WPU has the highest hardness, reaching 95.5 HD. But its other performances are lower than PCl-WPU.

First Time

Fluoropolymers play an essential role in electrowetting (EW) systems. However, no fluoropolymer possesses the desirable properties of both hydrophobicity and dielectric strength. In this study, for the first time, we report the integration of two representative fluoropolymers—namely, Teflon AF (AF 1600X) and Cytop (Cytop 809A)—into one bifunctionalized dielectric nanolayer. Within this nanolayer, both the superior hydrophobicity of Teflon AF and the excellent dielectric strength of Cytop were able to be retained. Each composed of a 0.5 μm Cytop bottom layer and a 0.06 μm Teflon AF top layer, the fabricated composite nanolayers showed a high withstand voltage of ~70 V (a dielectric strength of 125 V/μm) and a high water contact angle of ~120°. The electrowetting and dielectric properties of various film thicknesses were also systemically investigated. Through detailed study, it was observed that the thicker Teflon AF top layers produced no obvious enhancement of the Cytop/Teflon AF stack.

ABSTRACTA new method to fabricate superhydrophobic hard films is described. Surface texture of lotus leaf was replicated on an acetate film, on which a nanocrystalline (NC) Ni coating with a grain size of 30 ± 4 nm and a hardness of 4.42 GPa was electrodeposited. The surface texture consisted of conical protuberances with a height of 10.0 ± 2.0 0m and a tip radius of 2.5 ± 0.5 0m. An additional electrodeposition for 120 s and 300 s was used to locally modify the surface structure by depositing ‘Ni crowns' on the protuberances that increased their height to 14.0 ± 2.0 0m and their tip radius to 6.0 ± 0.5 0m. The modified structures were then treated with a perfluoropolyether (PFPE) solution, which provided a high water contact angle of 156°, i.e., comparable to the naturally superhydrophobic lotus leaf. The increased hydrophobicity as a result of surface structure and chemistry modifications was evident compared to a smooth NC Ni sample, which had a contact angle of 64°.

In order to fabricate the SiO2 thin film using dimethyl silicone oil and ozone on protective covering glass for solar panels, the hydrophilicity and the transmittance of the film was investigated. We fabricated the film at different temperatures of 150°C, 175°C, 200°C, 225°C and 250°C on the glass substrates. The hydrophilicity of the film fabricated at 150°C showed very good hydrophilicity (water contact angle: ~8°), and transmittance was improved compared to the non-coated glass.
