Combination of Bioinspiration: A General Route to Superhydrophobic Particles

Zhang, Liang, Wu, Junjie, Wang, Yongxin, Long, Yuhua, Zhao, Ning, Xu, Jian·2012·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

We combine two amazing abilities found in nature: the superhydrophobic property of lotus leaf and the adhesive ability of mussel adhesive protein. The molecular structure mimic of the single units of adhesive proteins, dopamine, was polymerized in an alkaline aqueous solution to encapsulate microparticles. The as-formed thin polydopamine walls worked as reactive templates to generate silver nanoparticles on the capsuled particles. As a result, core/shell/satellite composite particles were generated with a hierarchical structure similar to the micromorphology of lotus leaf. The composite particles exhibited extremely water repellence after fluorination. Because dopamine can deposit and adhere to all kinds of materials, this method can be applied to diverse microparticles, from organic to inorganic. In addition, particles of different sizes and matters can be modified to superhydrophobic particles in one pot. Magnetic particles have also been prepared which could be used as oil-absorbent and magnetic controlled carriers. "Oil marbles" formed underwater were achieved for the first time.

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.
