Remarkably Simple Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Surfaces Using Electroless Galvanic Deposition

Remarkably Simple Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Surfaces Using Electroless Galvanic Deposition

Superhydrophobic surfaces with contact angles between 173° and 180° can be produced simply by spontaneous deposition of a textured gold or silver coating layer, followed by a self‐assembled monolayer of polyfluoroalkyl thiol. Objects of any size or shape may be coated. For example, the metal “pond s...

Zusammenfassung:Superhydrophobic surfaces with contact angles between 173° and 180° can be produced simply by spontaneous deposition of a textured gold or silver coating layer, followed by a self‐assembled monolayer of polyfluoroalkyl thiol. Objects of any size or shape may be coated. For example, the metal “pond skater” (photo) stands on superhydrophobic copper legs.
