Super Water-Repellent Surfaces Resulting from Fractal Structure
Abstract
Super water-repellent surfaces showing a contact angle of 174° for water droplets have been made of alkylketene dimer (AKD). Water droplets roll around without attachment on the super water-repellent surfaces when tilted slightly. The AKD is a kind of wax and forms spontaneously a fractal structure in its surfaces by solidification from the melt. The fractal surfaces of AKD repel a water droplet completely and show a contact angle larger than 170° without any fluorination treatments. Theoretical prediction of the wettability of the fractal surfaces has been given in the previous paper. 3 The relationship between the contact angle of the flat surface θ and that of the fractal surface θ f is expressed by the equation cos θ f = ( L / l ) D -2 cos θ where ( L / l ) D -2 is the surface area magnification factor. The fractal dimension of the solid AKD surface was determined to be D ≈ 2.3 applying the box-counting method to the SEM images of the AKD cross section. L and l, which are the largest and the smallest size limits of the fractal behavior of the surface, are also estimated from the box-counting method. The contact angles of some water/1,4-dioxane mixtures on the fractal and the flat AKD surfaces were determined, and the values of cos θ f were plotted against cos θ. The plot of cos θ f against cos θ agrees well with the theoretical prediction. It has been demonstrated by this work that the fractal concept is a powerful tool to develop some novel functional materials.

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.
