Superhydrophobic Fabrics Produced by Electrospinning and Chemical Vapor Deposition
Abstract
A versatile method to produce superhydrophobic fabrics by combining electrospinning and initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) is reported. In this study, poly(caprolactone) (PCL) was first electrospun and then coated with a thin layer of hydrophobic polymerized perfluoroalkyl ethyl methacrylate (PPFEMA) by iCVD. The hierarchical surface roughness inherent in the PCL electrospun mats and the extremely low surface free energy of the coating layer obtained by iCVD yields stable superhydrophobicity with a contact angle of 175° and a threshold sliding angle less than 2.5° for a 20 mg droplet. This PPFEMA-coated PCL mat was also shown to exhibit at least “grade 8” oleophobicity. Hydrophobicity was demonstrated to increase monotonically with a reduction in diameter among bead-free fibers and with the introduction of a high density of relatively small diameter beads. The systematic effect of fiber morphology on superhydrophobicity was also investigated theoretically and experimentally using both beaded and bead-free fibers with diameters ranging from 600 to 2200 nm.

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.
