New responsive property of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) as the thermal switch from superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic
A reversible switch between superhydrophobicity at low temperature and superhydrophilicity at high temperature was fabricated by coating poly(epsilon-caprolactone) on a rough substrate, which resulted from the combination of the different adaptability of the polymer chain upon crystalline/amorphous...

| Zusammenfassung: | A reversible switch between superhydrophobicity at low temperature and superhydrophilicity at high temperature was fabricated by coating poly(epsilon-caprolactone) on a rough substrate, which resulted from the combination of the different adaptability of the polymer chain upon crystalline/amorphous phase transition and the optimized roughness. |
