Superhydrophobic Polymer Surfaces by Iskender Yilgoer Pdf

Surface properties play critical roles in determining the durability and overall performance of polymeric materials for applications in many different fields. Recent investigations on naturally superhydrophobic surfaces such as plant leaves and insect wings led to a clear understanding of the close relationship between surface topography, roughness, chemical structure and superhydrophobicity. This led to a dramatic increase in research efforts on the preparation and characterisation of polymeric systems with superhydrophobic surfaces. Current and potential uses of such materials in a wide range of applications also make them commercially very attractive.The main focus of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the new developments regarding the preparation and characterisation of superhydrophobic polymeric surfaces. A large number of methods used in the preparation of robust and durable superhydrophobic polymer surfaces and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Close relationship between the polymer composition, hierarchical micro/nano surface topography and superhydrophobic behavior are provided. In addition to the practical aspects, special emphasis is also given to the discussion of the theoretical foundations of the wetting behavior of rough surfaces.Nature is the ultimate guide for the preparation of functional materials and surfaces. As discussed in detail in the book, using biomimetic approaches it is possible to design and produce superhydrophobic surfaces with interesting functionalities. The most critical tasks for the scientists and engineers working in the field seem to be; (i) to clearly understand the relations between surface compositions, topography and surface properties; (ii) to develop simple laboratory techniques and commercially viable production methods to produce superhydrophobic surfaces and devices mimicking the natural systems; and (iii) to demonstrate novel applications in research laboratory and develop commercial applications for these materials with smart and multifunctional surfaces.This book provides a clear understanding of the theoretical foundations of superhydrophobicity together with practical experimental guidance for the preparation of such polymeric surfaces to researchers and application engineers working in the field.

Superhydrophobic Surfaces by Alain Carré,K. L. Mittal Pdf

Superhydrophobic surfaces (water contact angles higher than 150º) can only be achieved by a combination of hydrophobicity (low surface energy materials) with appropriate surface texture. In nature one can find an array of impressive and elegant examples of superhydrophobic surfaces. For example, on a lotus leaf rain drops bounce off after impact, then entirely roll off the lotus leaf and drag along any dirt particles, without leaving residues. The artificial design of superhydrophobic and self-cleaning surfaces has become an extremely active area of fundamental and applied research.This book presents both fundamental and applied aspects of superhydrophobic surfaces. It describes also different strategies for making superhydrophobic surfaces from a large diversity of materials (polymers, metals and other inorganic materials, composites) and processes (lithographic techniques, electrochemical processes, self-assembly processes, colloidal particles, sol-gel processes, nanofilaments, or simple scraping).A bountiful of information is covered in this book which represents cumulative wisdom of many world-renowned researchers in the fascinating and burgeoning area of superhydrophobic surfaces.

Materials with Extreme Wetting Properties by Majid Hosseini,Ioannis Karapanagiotis Pdf

This book aims at identifying novel advanced materials of extreme wetting properties (MEWP) for practical, industrial applications. The state-of-the art superhdyrophobic, superhdyrophilic, superoleophobic, superoleophilic, and superomniphobic materials, that are MEWP, with respect to their technological and emerging industrial applications are discussed in this book. MEWP offer new perspectives providing numerous potential applications. Hence, these advanced MEWP have the potential to lead to a new generation of products and devices with unique properties and functionalities. Despite the large scientific progress on MEWP there are still some obstacles which have to be solved to make these materials available for real life applications. Recent advances on the production strategies, including methods and materials, of MEWP has shown that the durability and sustainability obstacles can be addressed thus offering the possibility for industrial exploitation. MEWP with wettabilities ranging from superhydrophobicity to superhydrophilicity provide promising avenues for several and important applications, which sometimes are crucial for the humankind. This book also discusses a large variety of other potential applications of MEWP, thus providing new ideas to scientists and engineers for further exploitation of these novel materials. Moreover, the whole spectrum of the recent technological developments, current research progress, future outlook, and the modern trends in the applications of MEWP are discussed in a consistent approach.
