Silver-perfluorodecanethiolate complexes having superhydrophobic, antifouling, antibacterial properties were prepared by a reaction of silver nitrate with perfluorodecanethiol. When the silver nitrate to perfluorodecanethiol molar ratio was 1/2, silver-perfluorodecanethiolate complexes having hierarchical micro-/nano-sized wire shapes were obtained, and they showed superhydrophobic and antifouling properties. After UV irradiation, silver nanoparticles were generated on the wires and exhibited antibacterial properties.

This article reports a new catalytic method for preparing nanoparticles of silver thiolate from silver nanoparticles scattered on a ZrO2-coated substrate. Such nanoparticles transform into silver (perfluoro) decanethiolate after immersion in a solution of (perfluoro) decanethiol in heptane. These transformations occur at room temperature and are catalysed by ZrO2.
