Shear-controlled Micro-nano Scaled Super-Hydrophobic Surfaces with Tunable Sliding Angles from isotactic-Polypropylene / Polypropylene Chlorid Blend
Abstract
With proper selection of shear and thermal conditions, super- hydrophobic polymeric surfaces (Contact angle higher than 150^o) with tunable sliding angles (From less than 1^o to higher than 90^o) can be prepared from isotactic polypropylene (iPP)/ polypropylene chloride (PPC) blend under ambient atmosphere. No further modification with low-surface-energy component is needed. The formed surfaces have good thermal property, chemical and moisture resistance and potentially low manufacturing cost.
