Abstract: | Recently, superhydrophobic surfaces are gaining much interest because they may be employed in a series of applications, spanning
from the realization of self-cleaning surfaces to microfluidics to special water-impermeable tissues allowing perspiration.
It is well-known that superhydrophobicity strictly depends on the combination of superficial micro- and nano-structures. Then,
key factors in the process of surface synthesis are the parameters which will define the surface conformation. In this work,
we deal with the fabrication of polymer-based superhydrophobic surfaces. We developed a new method to have a good control
of the structure of the synthesised surface. A high stability of the superhydrophobic character during time was obtained.
Moreover, the synthesis process is green and easily transferable to industry for large production. |
