Self‐Cleaning and Next Generation Anti‐Fog Surfaces and Coatings

Open access
Howarter, John A., Youngblood, Jeffrey P.·2008·Macromolecular Rapid Communications

Abstract

Due to their high surface energy, hydrophilic surfaces are susceptible to contaminations which are difficult to remove and often ruin the surface. Traditional anti‐fog coatings are especially limited by contaminants, as the prevention of fogging is enhanced as hydrophilicity increases. Thus, advanced solutions to fogging are required which incorporate some degree of self‐cleaning ability without significant losses in anti‐fog character. Potential next generation anti‐fog surfaces are characterized with particular emphasis on extended lifetime stimuli‐responsive surfaces. Surfactant‐based surfaces exhibited simultaneous hydrophilicity, necessary for anti‐fogging, and oleophobicity, necessary for contamination resistance. The combination of these features rendered the surface as self‐cleaning. magnified image

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
