Abstract :

[en] Rough structures have gained increasing attention since they are essential for surfaces with special wettability, which can be used for various applications. It is still a challenge to find a low-cost and simple way to fabricate rough surfaces despite extensive efforts. Herein, we report a facile strategy to fabricate self-roughened surfaces based on polarity-induced phase separation. The strategy relies on the migration of flexible chains of the nonpolar polysiloxane to airside, driven by surface tension and polarity difference with the polar crosslinker, which forms a self-roughened surface with numerous protrusions. It is worth noting that this strategy does not require strict control of procedures, since it is insensitive to environmental changes unlike other phase separation methods, as shown by the results of systematic studies on several key parameters. Modified fabrics and coatings exhibit excellent superhydrophobicity with a water contact angle higher than 160°. Moreover, due to the strong hydrogen bonds formed by the polar urea groups of the crosslinker with substrates, the abrasion resistance of the coating is significantly enhanced. It is believed that the proposed novel and facile strategy will be a promising candidate for industrial manufacturing.
