Zusammenfassung: | Methods of producing hydrophobic surfaces include coating a surface with nanoparticle populations that differ in cross-sectional dimension and are coated with a low surface energy material. Transparent hydrophobic surfaces are disclosed that include functionalized nanoparticles and low surface energy polymers. The surfaces exhibit roughness, hydrophobic or superhydrophobic properties, and/or optical transparency or near-transparency.
L'invention concerne des procédés de fabrication de surfaces hydrophobes qui, dans certains modes de réalisation, comprennent des populations de nanoparticules qui diffèrent en dimension en coupe et un revêtement d'une matière à faible énergie de surface. L'invention concerne également des procédés de production de telles surfaces hydrophobes. L'invention concerne également des procédés de fabrication de surfaces hydrophobes transparentes ayant des nanoparticules fonctionnalisées et des polymères à faible énergie de surface. |
