Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed superhydrophobic SiO(2) layers using a two-step process involving nanoscale surface roughness and a fluorination treatment.
- The initial step included electrospraying SiO(2) precursor solutions made via a sol-gel method, resulting in very rough layers.
- Following fluorination with a specific chemical, the layers showed impressive water repellency (168°) and displayed durability against water, UV light, and heat, suggesting potential for various applications.
