An epoxy/PTFE composite was prepared by curing the epoxy resin on the surface-modified PTFE film. Surface modification of PTFE films was carried out via argon plasma pretreatment, followed by UV-induced graft copolymerization with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA). The film composite achieved a 90°-peel adhesion strength above 15 N/cm. The strong adhesion of the epoxy resin to PTFE arose from the fact that the epoxide groups of the grafted GMA chains were cured into the epoxy resin matrix to give rise to a highly crosslinked interphase, as well as the fact that the GMA chains were covalently tethered on the PTFE film surface. Delamination of the composite resulted in cohesive failure inside the PTFE film and gave rise to an epoxy resin surface with a covalently-adhered fluoropolymer layer. The surface composition and microstructures of the GMA graft-copolymerized PTFE (GMA-g-PTFE) films and those of the delaminated epoxy resin and PTFE film surfaces were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), water contact angle and scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurements. The delaminated epoxy resin surfaces were highly hydrophobic, having water contact angles of about 140°C. The value is higher than that of the pristine PTFE film surface of about 110°. The epoxy resin samples obtained from delamination of the epoxy/GMA-g-PTFE composites showed a lower rate of moisture sorption. All the fluorinated epoxy resin surfaces exhibited rather good stability when subjected to the Level 1 hydrothermal reliability tests. 相似文献
A novel dicarboxyl-terminated poly(2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl acrylate) oligomer (CTHFA) was synthesized through metal-free anionic polymerization and hydrolysis reaction. Chemical structures of CTHFA were characterized by gel permeation chromatography and 1H NMR. Two types of CTHFA with different chain lengths were initially used as an efficient surface modifier to improve the surface properties of epoxy resin, at the content of CTHFA ranging between 0 and 8 wt%. We minimized the amounts of the CTHFA used to achieve a high hydrophobic surface that was not obviously affected by the thermal properties of the epoxy resin. Surface properties and surface composition of the designed fluorinated epoxy resin were investigated by the contact angle and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Modified epoxy resin with 5 wt% CTHFA containing longer chain length showed excellent hydrophobic surface properties (a high water contact angle about 115° and low surface energy 14.12?mN/m2) while the modified epoxy resin with 5 wt% CTHFA containing shorter chain length did not. XPS analyses indicated that the 5 wt% of fluorinated CTHFA epoxy resin with long macromolecular-chain enhanced more fluorinated groups?? migration to the surface than the fluorinated CTHFA-modified epoxy resin with short macromolecular-chain at the same content. Moreover, thermal properties of CTHFA-modified epoxy resin were also investigated. 相似文献
This paper reports the fabrication of a lotus-effect coating by grafting epoxy (EP) resin on the surface of microsilica and
nanosilica, respectively, and subsequent spraying. The coating shows the same structure and capability as lotus leaves, and
shows a static contact angle as large as 165° and a sliding angle as small as 2.5°. SEM analysis shows that the hydrophobic
capability depends on the surface structure of the coatings. This method may be suited for processing large scale or irregular
surfaces. 相似文献
Summary: A fluorine containing hyperbranched polymer was synthesized by modifying an aromatic‐aliphatic hyperbranched polyester with a semifluorinated alcohol via a Mitsunobu reaction and was subsequently used as an additive in cationic photopolymerization of an epoxy resin. The remaining OH groups of the fluorinated hyperbranched polymer interact with the polymeric carbocation through a chain‐transfer mechanism inducing an increase in the final epoxy conversion. The fluorinated HBP induces modification of bulk and surface properties, with an increase in Tg and surface hydrophobicity already reached at very low concentration. The HBFP additive can, therefore, protect the coatings from aggressive solvents, increases hardness, and allows the preparation of a low energy surface coating.

Nanocasting was used to develop epoxy/graphene composites (EGCs) as corrosion inhibitors with hydrophobic surfaces (HEGC). The contact angle of water droplets on a sample surface can be increased from ∼82° (epoxy surface) to ∼127° (hydrophobic epoxy and EGC). It should be noted that EGC coating was found to provide an excellent corrosion protection effect on cold-rolled steel (CRS) electrode. Enhancement of corrosion protection using EGC coatings could be attributed to the following three reasons: (1) epoxy could act as a physical barrier coating, (2) the hydrophobicity repelled the moisture and further reduced the water/corrosive media adsorption on the epoxy surface, preventing the underlying metals from corrosion attack, and (3) the well-dispersed graphene nanosheets (GNSs) embedded in HEGC matrix could prevent corrosion owing to a relatively higher aspect ratio than clay platelets, which enhances the oxygen barrier property of HEGC. 相似文献
Water repellent SiO2 particulate coatings were prepared by a one-step introduction of vinyl groups on the coating surface. Rough surface structure and low surface energy could be directly obtained. Vinyl functionalized SiO2 (vinyl-SiO2) spheres with average diameter of 500 nm were first synthesized by a sol–gel method in aqueous solution using vinyltriethoxysilane as the precursor. The multilayer SiO2 coating fabricated by dip-coating method was highly hydrophobic with a water contact angle of 145.7° ± 2.3°. The superhydrophobic SiO2 coating with a water contact angle up to 158° ± 1.7° was prepared by spraying an alcohol mixture suspension of the vinyl-SiO2 spheres on the glass substrate. In addition, the superhydrophobic SiO2 coating demonstrated good stability under the acidic condition. However, it lost its hydrophobicity above 200°C because of the oxidation and degradation of vinyl groups. 相似文献
This study reports on the deposition of a hydrophobic coating on polyurethane (PU)-based synthetic leather through a plasma polymerization method and investigates the hydrophobic behavior of the plasma-coated substrate. The silicon compound of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO), inactive gas argon (Ar), and toluene were used to impart surface hydrophobicity to a PU-based substrate. Surface hydrophobicity was analyzed by water contact angle measurements. Surface hydrophobicity was increased by deposition of compositions of 100% HMDSO, 3:1 HMDSO/toluene, and 1:1 HMDSO/toluene. Optimum conditions of 40 W, 30 s plasma treatment resulted in essentially the same initial contact angle results of approximately 100° for all three treatment compositions. The initial water contact angle for untreated material was about 73°. A water droplet took 1800 s to spread out on the plasma-treated sample after it had been placed on the sample surface. An increase in plasma power also led to a decrease in contact angle, which may be attributed to oxidization of HMDSO during plasma deposition. XPS analysis showed that plasma polymerization of HMDSO/toluene compositions led to a significant increase in atomic percentage of Si compound responsible for the hydrophobic surface. The easy clean results for the treated and untreated PU-based synthetic leather samples clearly showed that the remaining stain on the plasma-polymerized sample was less than that of untreated sample. The plasma-formed coating was both hydrophobic and formed a physical barrier against water and stain. 相似文献
