Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Surface Chemistry
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Superamphiphobic surfaces repel both water and oils.
  • Existing methods often involve nanoparticles or nanofibers, which can lack adhesion.
  • Developing robust, inherently structured superamphiphobic materials is crucial for practical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel surface modification technique for cellulose-based paper.
  • To create a superamphiphobic paper with inherent hierarchical structures and good adhesion.
  • To investigate the impact of micro- and nanoscale roughness on wetting properties.

Main Methods:

  • A two-step process combining plasma etching and vapor deposition was employed.
  • Plasma etching created inherent micro- and nanoscale roughness on the paper substrate.
  • Vapor deposition further tuned surface properties for superamphobicity.

Main Results:

  • The modified paper exhibited excellent roll-off properties for water and various oils.
  • The superamphiphobic surfaces demonstrated high contact angles and low sliding angles.
  • The treated paper maintained mechanical robustness, flexibility, and strength.
  • Enhanced gas permeability was observed due to plasma etching-induced pore volume.

Conclusions:

  • A simple, effective method for creating robust superamphiphobic paper was established.
  • The inherent hierarchical structure provides superior adhesion compared to nanoparticle-based methods.
  • The resulting superamphiphobic paper possesses a unique combination of properties suitable for diverse applications.
