Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a highly porous TiO coating that exhibits self-cleaning properties and high water affinity, useful for applications like solar panels and mirrors.
- The coating was created using a method called swelling-assisted sequential infiltration synthesis (SIS) combined with polymer removal, resulting in a smooth, interconnected pore structure.
- Tests showed that the coating significantly improved its ability to repel water and effectively degraded about 92% of methylene blue dye when exposed to UV light for 180 minutes, indicating strong photocatalytic activity.
