Evaluation of Structure, Heterogeneities, Thickness and Corrosion Protection of Electrodeposited Sol-Gel Superhydrophobic Coatings

Materials Research, 2022
The present work evaluated the structure and heterogeneities, surface chemistry, hydrophobicity level, and corrosion protection in a saline environment of electrodeposited sol-gel superhydrophobic coatings on carbon steel, using microscopy techniques ...

Is superhydrophobicity robust with respect to disorder?

, 2013
We consider theoretically the Cassie-Baxter and Wenzel states describing the wetting contact angles for rough substrates. More precisely, we consider different types of periodic geometries such as square protrusions and disks in 2D, grooves and ...

Influence of surface roughness on superhydrophobicity [PDF]

, 2006
Superhydrophobic surfaces, with liquid contact angle theta greater than 150 degree, have important practical applications ranging from self-cleaning window glasses, paints, and fabrics to low-friction surfaces. Many biological surfaces, such as the lotus

Spontaneous Recovery of Superhydrophobicity on Nanotextured Surfaces

, 2015
Rough or textured hydrophobic surfaces are dubbed superhydrophobic due to their numerous desirable properties, such as water repellency and interfacial slip. Superhydrophobicity stems from an aversion for water to wet the surface texture, so that a water

Plastron properties of a superhydrophobic surface [PDF]

, 2006
Most insects and spiders drown when submerged during flooding or tidal inundation, but some are able to survive and others can remain submerged indefinitely without harm.

A Route towards Durable Underwater Stable Superhydrophobic Surfaces: PET-Reinforced Candle Soot Layers

Surfaces
Superhydrophobic coating is widely used due to its waterproof and self-cleaning properties. Carbon soot (CS) nanoparticles are naturally superhydrophobic and non-toxic which are superior to other superhydrophobic coating.

Roll-to-roll fabrication of superhydrophobic pads covered with nanofur for the efficient clean-up of oil spills

Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2022
Superhydrophobic surfaces, which self-clean through rinsing with water, have gained significant importance during the last decades. A method to fabricate such a surface featuring the lotus effect, solely through structuring, is hot pulling of a polymer ...

Nano-scale superhydrophobicity: suppression of protein adsorption and promotion of flow-induced detachment [PDF]

, 2008
Wall adsorption is a common problem in microfluidic devices, particularly when proteins are used. Here we show how superhydrophobic surfaces can be used to reduce protein adsorption and to promote desorption.

Duplex Stainless Steel Laser‐Surface Textured: Stability in Brine Solution

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled laser‐surface treatment (LST) of duplex DSS2205 steel is performed to increase its stability in brine solution under cyclic electrochemical assays. The superior protection with respect to flat and smooth panels is attributed to the presence of FeCr2O4 as the main protective oxide layer in the LST surface, after corrosion tests. The stability
