Problems solved by technology

[0003] But so far, solvent-induced wettability changes and methods for inducing droplet motion in responsive wettable materials to various external stimuli have not been reported.
[0004] In addition, when electrodes with micro-nano-structured films are used for electrodeposition, due to the difference in wettability of the substrate to the electrolyte, the position of electrodeposition on the surface of each micro-nano array structural unit of the film cannot be effectively controlled, and the deposited film usually obtained Structure repeatability is poor and uneven

Embodiment 1

[0027] The micro-nano array structure film is selected to be a zinc oxide nanorod array structure with a rod diameter of 50 nm and a rod length of 0.3 μm. After 2 hours of hydrophobization treatment in a fluorosilane atmosphere, it is taken out to obtain a super-hydrophobic film.

[0028] Such as figure 1 As shown, a 5 μl water droplet is dropped on the superhydrophobic film. At this time, the water droplet presents a superhydrophobic state (CA=155°). After the solvent evaporates naturally, the water droplets assume a hydrophilic state (CA=90°), and the wettability of the film changes by 65° during this process.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for inducing the wettability changes of a super-hydrophobic film through a solvent. The method comprises the steps that a film is subjected to hydrophobization treatment to obtain the super-hydrophobic film; a water drop is dropwise added on the super-hydrophobic film, and the solvent for inducing the wettability changes of the prepared super-hydrophobic film is dropwise added over or at one side the water drop; after the solvent is naturally volatilized, the water drop is in a hydrophilic or hydrophobic state, and then the wettability of the super-hydrophobic film changes, wherein one of volatile organic solvents such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane, n-hexane and tetrahydrofuran is adopted as the solvent for inducing the wettability changes of the prepared super-hydrophobic film. The method that the wettability changes is induced by the solvent can be applied to liquid drop driving and has the important significance on the aspect of regulating the contact mode of liquid and electrodes in electro-deposition.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for changing the wettability of a superhydrophobic thin film induced by a solvent, and the application of the liquid droplet driven by the wettability change method in adjusting the contact mode of the liquid and the electrode in electrodeposition. Background technique [0002] The study of responsive materials, especially the driving and transportation regulation of liquids by smart surfaces / interfaces, is of great significance, and has a very broad application prospect in the fields of transfer, separation, and micro-testing. Wettability control is achieved by changing the properties of responsive materials through external stimuli, such as the molecular structure, chemical composition, and surface morphology of materials. Recently, researchers have realized that the responsive material surface is stimulated by external field, such as light (reference [1]: X.J.Feng, J.Zhai, L.Jiang, Angew.Chem.Int.Ed.2005,44,5115), ...
