Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide UV resistant surface coatings which exhibit photochemical activity that destroys toxic biological and chemical agents, and other contaminants. SOLUTION: A dual action self-cleaning and self-decontaminating coating consists of a superhydrophobic aspect capable of removing contaminants and cleaning the surface by having water droplets moving along the surface and a photochemically active aspect capable of disinfecting the surface by producing hydroxyl radicals in the presence of UV radiation and moisture.
